High in protein, no refined sugar, damn delicious!!
I love ice cream, obviously 🙄 but I do not buy it at the store because I don’t love the gums, thickeners, flavors, colors (especially in a pistachio variety!), and excessive sugar in them.
So I make my own. But then that has its own list of annoyances like dragging another appliance up onto the counter, the churning. I mean even with the ninja creami, which I own and love, is a hassle to get out and use. Especially right now in my newborn phase with two active toddlers. I just want everything to be simple because it’s honestly all I have the energy for.
But love having a sweet treat every night after dinner. It’s become a treasured little ritual and I don’t want it to ever end. So I have to make treats that are healthy enough that I don’t feel bad for enjoying them daily.
This ice cream is made simply by blending the ingredients together. Then freezing. No churning required.
And they’re GOOD ingredients. Hallelujah.
Just:
-Greek yogurt
-cottage cheese
-honey
-pistachios (of course)
Pistachio ice cream is elegant in its own right, but add in honey as the only sweetener and then lots of pistachios. It’s just next level. I mean, truly, it’s SOOO GOOOOD.
The pistachios added to the ice cream base help to thicken it up while giving tons of flavor.
