Lol that has nothing to do with it! I could easily be “fluffy” as I’ve dirty bulked in the past with way too high of calories. It’s all about balance and moderation! I also have an extremely high tdee due to my activity levels in general...

You should have gotten two T-shirts for finishing your families meals too...oh, and the bacon too
(you remind me of my brother at your age...man, could he 'put it away' - He always started and ended his day with a box of cereal and milk and would eat X-Lrg. homemade fully loaded pizzas and the like all day it seemed. He looked like you too! Now he's in his mid fifties and is overweight...)0 -

Thats child's play.

wonk...wonk...my protein fluff, tried making today -chocolate flavored and it was editable, but not anything like what is appears it suppose to be:( I did use diet pepsi and splenda and whey protein as was as some cocoa powder. i felt like I kept having to double the dose of xanthin gum and still didn't come out so well:( I also tried it with out the splenda and almond milk and used sprite zero and again mixed for 10-15 minutes with poor results also...??

I can't do the protein fluff. It always turned out gross for me. The protein ice cream is amazing though. I still eat that every night!1

I use a Ninja too.
I start with a bunch of ice..enough to just cover the tops of the blades. Blend and turn it into snow. Scrape it down and add 60ml(1/4 cup) sugar free pancake syrup and about 6 oz of cashew milk. Blend and scrape. Add 3g of xanthan gum and 28g protein powder. Blend and scrape. Then I do a splash of sugar free/calorie free syrup and blend until it becomes big and fluffy. I usually top with a dash of sea salt, sugar free chocolate syrup and some more sugar free syrup.2 -

No, tofu ones! I usually hate tofu noodles and cant stand the smell or texture. I've been against them for years after originally trying them and eating them a few times. I found these had no fishy smell and were much better in texture than other brands I've tried. I was pleasantly surprised. Maybe all brands have improved since I used to buy them 2 years ago.

For me they are on the shelf. But when I bring them home they go into the fridge.
You can easily buy them from lowcarbcanada.ca web site. I also think they have a store out west.

Help! i think i just used too much ice? i filled to top of blades and had to use double the syrup(gross) and never ended with anything fluffy? it it be the whey?

Ahh! I don't know?! Maybe the blades come up higher on your model...making it too much ice? Did you add the exact amounts of the other ingredients (besides adding the extra syrup)? I make 2 batches of it every night and do it the exact same way every time. It always comes out like a big bowl of delicious soft serve!

Wow really?! Thanks for letting us know because I've always heard people saying it wouldn't work because non-whey won't "fluff" well, but never seen someone try. If you try it @hcdo please share how it turns out and I will do the same!1 -

Fluffing is done by introduction of Xantham gum. This is what adds the volume.
Okay, so I use...
- 1 serving powder
- 0.5cup silk cashew vanilla
- 0.25cup walden farms pancake syrup
- 0.5tsp xantham gum
First with a tray of ice I blend until like snow and then add all of the add ins and blend? How long do I blend for to get it to whip? How long do you guys usually blend each step for? Is there a post with a detailed recipe in this thread somewhere? I am afraid to try and fail, lol. Is it better to use a food processor or vitamix blender or hand mixer?
Sorry to ask you guys to repeat your recipes if you posted, but you guys have it perfected so I want to follow it exactly.0
