Super Bowl Sundae

Do ya'll follow The World According To Eggface? I learned about her blog at my first WLS support group meeting. One of the doctor's mentioned that the blog featured amazing protein shake recipes.I love checking in on the blog weekly.

I love that she has millions of recipes for snacks that would normally be shunned, like donuts  and ice cream.

Lately I've been craving chocolate and/or ice cream something fierce. The other day I grabbed one of those tiny Hershey's Dark Chocolate bars at work. No big deal right? It's smaller than my pinky finger. 40 calories. When I'm eating 800 calories a day, 40 calories is too much. Especially for something that offers me about 30 seconds of enjoyment. So I decided to give the protein ice cream a whirl.

I whisked 2 cups of Hood Chocolate Milk with 4 scoops of Body Fortress Chocolate Peanut Butter and threw it in my ice cream maker.We took a few extra large spoonfuls to taste test just now and it was great.

I can't wait to have some later. I'm going to top it with a bit of whip cream later and have a little sundae. When I get a chance to go to the store I'll try some of eggface's ice cream recipes because they all sound delish.

  4. I think next time I'll cut down the protein powder to 1 scoop to 2 cups of milk. I don't need THAT much protein in it ...and that will cut the calories down so I can put some chocolate syrup or candy in it.
