I make mine very different, I think I got the recipe from Weight Watchers a couple years back. My recipe isn't as dense or protein packed, but its light and fluffy!

1 can pumpkin
1 small box sf instant vanilla pudding mix
1 container of fat free or lite cool whip
cinnamon, nutmeg, splenda to taste

Mix all the ingredients together and enjoy.

This is how I make mine less the added splenda/sweetener (already sweet) and use pumpkin pie spice but I add 8oz fat free cream cheese for added protein/texture. When in season, I use pumpkie spice pudding mix.

You need to make it like this. My recipe using the same concept. I mainly tackled this issue of "making your own ice cream" because Arctic Zero ice cream got really expensive.

http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/403233-lost-96lbs-and-made-top-10-in-physique-contest - PAGE 8-9 of the forum thread shows how I was able to make pumpkin ice cream and strawberry oatmeal cookie ice cream. My next project is Cookie Crisp N Cream Ice Cream

This is how mine turns out. Instructions and what not are in my forum thread. I've successfully made pumpkin and strawberry oatmeal.

Will have to give this a shot, though I'll modify the recipe a bit. Anything that will help clear some of the pumpkin I canned from last years harvest.

Here's the pumpkin one....AND I've made pizzas and what not fit into my macros.

And here it is folks. Pumpkin Granola Chocolate Brownie High-Protein, High-Fiber Ice Cream. ENJOY. But first I must warn you experiment in small batches because your macronutrient needs and totals may be different than mine. But the base recipe and instructions are the same. It's up to you to play with the toppings or innards as the case may be.:bigsmile:

The carb macro here is higher because I needed them to be higher for today and tomorrow. I chose to bulk this out with carbs via two FiberONE granola bars and three FiberONE brownies. OR you could have easily substituted with 3 to 4 pop tarts. It's up to you. Go with out the FiberOne adds or pop tarts and you get a very low carb, high fiber, high protein ice cream.

Use the whole darn can. Each serving has about 9g of CHO, but 5g of that CHO is fiber.

Zucchini peeled and washed. You are not using this many, I just like to prepare in batches.

Your choice of cinnamon and the amount you wish, just account for it.

Your choice of sugar-substitute and the amount you wish, just account for it.

300g of zucchini. I know the scale says 299g, it's close enough

Put the entire contents of the pumpkin and 300g of zucchini into a ziplock bag and smash flat. It freezes easier and quicker this way.

Takes a good 3-4 hours and it should be frozen like this...

Break it up and leave it in the bag for now.

Use about 3.5 scoops of your choice of vanilla whey. If making a chocolate or strawberry ice cream, use the appropriate whey flavors. I use chocolate in my upcoming ice cream project called Cookie Crisps 'N Cream Ice Cream (coming soon)

Add 1/2 cup of 2% milk and your whey protein.

mix...not much really to say here...just mix. :laugh:

Add the pumpkin and zucchini and start slow and then move to medium and then to high. Should look fluffy and completely incorporated like this.

There should be THREE of this FiberONE brownies. I only took a photo of two then realized I needed to his certain macro goals and added the third brownie after this photo was taken.

Crumble and mix it with a spoon Cold Stone Creamery Style

when removing the unfrozen ice cream mixture, make sure to get everything. Since everything was weighed and measure, this remnant in the bowl are "lost macros" I'm afraid...:sad:

Put in a large tupperware container for freezing.

This is a comparison of two of my servings of pumpkin brownie ice cream versus 1 pint of Arctic Zero ice cream.

I realized that this big tupperware will not fit in this freezer or the 2nd fridge/freezer we have in the garage so I had to put it in 4 smaller tupperware containers increasing the "lost macros" from transferring from one container to another...:huh:

Take two of these and crumble and mix in Cold Stone Creamery Style

This is one scoop of ice cream. One scoop is "typically" one serving of "regular ice cream. But since there is so much volume of food with low caloric load, I will be having 6 scoops. The macros with the brownies and granola bars is 88c/14f/51p 30g of CHO of the 88g of CHO is fiber. Basically you are getting your WHOLE DAY's worth of fiber in, in one short. If you want to reduce the fat and fiber content sub out the FiberONE bars and brownies with pop tarts. I should have done this because all that fiber in one shot leaves you very full feeling... VERY FULL FEELING.

Six scoops per "helping" or "serving" depending on your macros.

Close up for texture...

Now the recipe as presented above actually has about 30g of fiber. That's like more than a whole days worth in one serving and one serving for me is roughly 7 scoops. There's fiber in the pumpkin, in the zucchini and in the FiberONE products of course. It's was not fun eating all that. The first 3 scoops was ok. The last 4 scoops was a chore to get through. So adjust the amount of fiber to be lower so you can get through the volume of food. I think next time I will add pop tarts into the ice cream. This way I can hit my carb macro allowance without feeling so darn full.
