Here's a recipe for a non-fat, low-cal tasty ice cream treat.
Fill a large zip lock bag with ice and add a 1/2 cup of table salt. The salt is to make the ice super cold and speed freezing. It does not touch the ice cream.
In a measuring cup, pour 1 cup of almond milk (I like PureAlmond Unsweetened only 35 calories for 1 cup)
1/2 tsp vanilla
2 tbsp of a natural or artificial sweetner (Splenda, Truvia, honey, etc..).
Mix well and pour liquid into a smaller zip lock bag and seal it tight.
Place the small bag inside the larger bag, seal and then shake vigorously for 4 to 5 minutes until the mixture hardens.
Tip: use oven mits to keep your hangs from getting too cold as you shake the bag.
Also, consider adding cinnamon, cocoa or instant coffee to the mixture for variety. Enjoy!
* Add a scoop of vanilla protein and you its an awesome meal replacement!
It definitely curbs any ice cream cravings.

This is great! My favorite almond milk (favorite ANY milk) too!0

Hmm, can this be made in an ice cream maker instead of the ziplock bag? I have an ice cream maker that has been gathering dust ever since I decided to get healthy...0

I don't see why not, but I've never used an ice cream machine. I know that doesn't help, but what do you have to lose? Let us know. I'm sure others would love to find out.0

If you add the protein powder would you still need the sweetener?0
-
Can't wait to try!!!0
-
Great idea - I'll have to try it. Probably burn off at least 35 calories with 4-5 minutes of shaking that mixture0

Probably not, since protein powder is usually sweet anyway.0
-
It is a good arm work out for sure.0

Sounds great, thanks for posting :flowerforyou:0

Ok I tried it with the protein powder and no sweetener. Definitely not as sweet as ice cream, but it was still really good. Thanks so much for posting that recipe!0

I hope it was good enough to curb your ice cream craving. I'm not a big ice cream fan, but like the fact that I'm having a treat and it's good for you.0

I'm sure you might have to adjust the sweetener a little, but that's the beauty of it. You can control what goes in it. I'm glad I'm able to help.0
-
