high protein ice cream...recipes?



Recommended Posts

Summer is here and I always CRAVE ice cream. I have a wonderful ice cream maker and want to make some frozen yogurt and high Protein ice cream. I have seen some recipes online for high protein recipes for people who are trying to build their muscles and I think I can make them (they are usually almond milk, Protein powder and fruit etc) I would love to find some sleeve approved recipes and frozen yogurt recipes. Does anyone have any they just love to share?

Thanks, I have checked out her blog before, but alot of her products she recommends I cannot find. For instance I have read about MAX Protein elsewhere and cannot find it anywhere. Anyone know if it has changed its name? What is your favorite Protein Powder? I have tried so many of them and they all have this funny aftertaste and this one doesnt sound like it does.

Most unflavored Proteins have the flavor of whey Protein. They are not tasteless, there is just no added flavor. I have tried many varieties and in my humble opinion, it is just acquiring the taste for it--like beer or wine.

I made one with ricotta cheese and banana. 100g ricotta to 1 banana. It freezed hard though so id say make it and eat the same day or be prepared to pull it out if the freezer a w hile before eating. I dont have an icecream maker. Probably would have been better with one

I make a high Protein 'sorbet' in my Vitamix blender (makes 2-3 servings):

Plain or vanilla greek yogurt (1 cup-ish)

1 scoop of unflavored or vanilla Protein powder

1/2 - 1 cup frozen fruit (any you like - I use strawberries, peaches, mango, pineapple, etc.

1/8 - 1/4 cup almond milk (or other milk you like) - just enough to get the mixer going smoothly. (If you want a more milkshake like consistency, increase the milk.)

Sometimes I add other ingredients, like a pinch of cinnamon in the peach or pineapple/mango, or a splash of lemon in the strawberry, and sometimes I put in a scoop of benefiber. You can also add in some carrot or other veggie, but be careful - they start to overwhelm the taste pretty quickly.

Make just before you want it - leftovers will freeze solid (thawing in microwave for 10 sec. and/or reblending for a minute works to make it ice-creamy again.)

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
