    That cookie protein pudding needs to get in my mouth. I'd top it with breakfast cereal and chow.

    Best breakfast ever. Protein fluff ice cream (combo of salted caramel and cinnamon crunch) topped with one toasted Van's protein waffle, 50g sliced banana and one tbs of Cary's sugar free maple syrup. With a strong black coffee. I'm off to work!

    You're a genius adding sliced bananas. I've been big on cereal with my fluff. Now I need to add sliced bananas to make it extra awesome.

    In the future, lets post the measurements for the ingredients used in the meals and the end calories. This will show better at the low calorie and the actual volume of whats on the plate.

    Yes, been curious of calories for these pictured meals.

    Great idea about adding the measurements and the calorie counts- Oh how I LOVE this thread!!!!!

    I agree on the calorie counts too. I'm seeing all these pictures and they look good and BIG but....some of the calorie counts seem big too so doesn't that defeat the purpose? :)

    I think some of it could depend on individual calorie goals.

    I usually make lunch my highest calorie meal & spend around 400-900 calories.

    Over the past few weeks I read through this whole thread, and it's been helpful.

    Just the idea of adding a handful of salad or rocket (arugula) to dinners has been incredible! It's crunchy, it's chewy, it goes with nearly everything, it fills your plate, it's mostly water! Brilliant.

    So I've seen ice cream fluff take this thread by storm. Those who make it on the regular/have 'perfected' it - what is your go to or favourite?

    Strawberry with Hershey's lite syrup on top.

    I always do mine by making "snow" out of the ice cubes and frozen strawberries first and then blending in the syrup and almond milk. Then I add the protein powder. I always get an amazing amount of volume that way.

    I like em all. I do snow first too, then add 1/2 scoop powder and 4oz almond milk. That's it. I use Quest and it fills my food processor. Then sprinkle whatever sounds good in top.

    I use 6 decaf coffee ice cubes, 4 Ice cubes to make snow. Then a scoop of pescience chocolate powder, 2 tsp cocoa powder, xanthan gum, 7 drops dark chocolate stevia, 1/2 cup unsweetened chocolate almond milk, and some cinnamon. Makes about 32 oz in my ninja

    I have PES Frosted Chocolate Cupcake protein powder. I don't like coffee, but might have to try some variation on your chocolate version.

    Oh! I know what I could make! I drink brewing cocoa. It would add a few calories, but I don't care, I could eat it for dinner. I could freeze a pot of that and use the ice cubes as protein powder.

    Oh my. Why did I just now think of this?

    I'd add some caramel extract. I use it when I drink the brewing cocoa.

    This will sound stupid but what is meant by 'snow'?
  • nowine4me
    nowine4me Posts: 3,985 Member
    Plain old ice in the blender or food processor. Let it run until it literally it looks like fine snow.

    My favorite is Shamrock Shake ice cream. Once I discovered that my Quest just sits on the shelf and gets ignored. I do the sugar free syrup, almond milk, liquid sucralose, peppermint extract, then blend it with a tray of ice cubes. Last goes in the French Vanilla pp and once its fully blended I top with more syrup and fat free reddi whip. I get 7 cups, which is one serving <3

    I have to give this a try. It sounds really delicious.

    It is SO good, let me know if you try it! I don't see myself getting sick of it anytime soon :D

    Has anyone tried the Jordan's Skinny Mixes or whipped foam toppings?

    If you've tried the syrups, do they replace using liquid Splenda and vanilla extract in the fluff? I can't find the stuff locally, so I need to order--any suggestions on flavors to start with?

    The coffee ice cubes don't make it taste like coffee, but it gives it a richer flavor than plain ice. I've thought about freezing a little almond milk in the tray and using a few.... but haven't tried it. Frozen coconut cream is also a good addition.
