Recipe: Skinny Summer Ice Cream

By Barbara Baez @BarbaraMBaez · On May 30, 2012

It’s feeling like summer, and you may be feeling like splurging on ice cream. Before you flag down the local ice cream truck, give this recipe a try. It will save you a lot of calories and fat–and it tastes great!

Skinny Summer Ice Cream

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup chocolate or vanilla Live Rite protein powder
  • 1 small banana
  • 3 cups almond milk (This works better dairy milk for helping the ice cream to thicken.)

Directions:

1. Combine all ingredients in a blender and blend until consistent. Mixture should be thick and creamy, not lumpy.

2. Pour the mixture into a medium-sized metal bowl, cover with aluminium foil, and place in the refridgerator to chill for 1 hour. (Chilling the mixture before freezing allows it to reach freezing temperature faster once placed in the freezer, and it helps create a smoother ice cream).

3. Remove bowl from the refridgerator and place it in the freezer for 2 hours. Mix every half hour to create a “Mr. Softee”-style guilt-free ice cream in your favorite flavor!

For an extra treat, top with a healthy topping like crushed walnuts or chopped fruit.

Nutritional info: serving size = 1.5 cups; 325 calories, 2.5 g fat, and 17 g protein per serving.

Recipe by Ilise “Baker Babe” Reilly, manager of Lucille Roberts Jamaica.
