    Just look at those two monstrous pieces of bacon he had to force down along with I would guess 12000 calories of pancake haha :)

    Ahhh, to be so young and to be able to eat like that!

    T-shirt and the meal lol. And then I won some self pride and great photos for Instagram in just completing it😂😂 not serious on that part really lol but T-shirt and a meal.

    You should have gotten two T-shirts for finishing your families meals too...oh, and the bacon too :D
    (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...)

    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...??ugzo3maz3o0i.jpg

    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!

    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.

    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. 59uxorhb6q0i.jpg

    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.

    Thanks 'Crazy'!

    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!

    Has anyone tried making protein fluff with plant-based protein powders? Does it work?

    Same question. I've only seen people say it wouldn't work but never feedback if anyone ever tried to do it.

    I think it works better actually. Dependent upon the protein but mine makes it thicker than whey/ casein!

    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!

    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.
