My copies are finally here!!! 30 flavors in each book – a whole ice cream shop in 40 pages! It’s all stripped-down content with no fluff. Hard for a blogger to shut up, but I very intentionally did, so they’re sized like fat comic books rather than hefty texts. Hope you love them, too!
Best passion project ever! I am down 12 pounds since Christmas from recipe development. Pretty much blasted away that perimenopausal belly! My body loves high-protein ice cream for breakfast! High-produce in a lot of them feels awfully nice, too!
A few friends messaged that a specific milk and cottage cheese don’t work for their bodies, so I give alternatives on page 6 of each book, how to swap in tofu to convert the recipes to to-fruities! The macros are really close, but I give the adjustments to the numbers there, too.
I include the macros by ingredient for each flavor so you can swap out for allergies/preferences/favorites… The nutrition facts (protein grams, fat grams, carb grams, and calories) come directly off the nutrition labels where available or MyFitnessPal for things without labels like fruit. I am a massive flavorist! No puddings and no gums! They taste like pudding and I want my ice creams to taste like delicious decadent ice cream!
And the book is 8 1/2” x 11” so the text and pics are as big as I could make them! Yeah! Trying to let people leave their reading glasses on the counter! 
Okay – One page of fluff – a collage of my favorite places in Wisconsin to go with a beloved Wisconsin recipe converted to a high-protein ice cream for an old friend’s request.

First up! My books!
Jen’s Protein Nice Creams
Jen’s Protein Nice Creams 2
Hope you love it!!! Here’s a peek at the flavors/macros inside.
Next! You need a machine!
I have the Ninja Creami Deluxe 11-in-1. The containers hold 24 oz and it has the most settings. All of my recipes are made for these 24 ounce containers. Those 24 oz containers are perfect for the hub and I to split. This machine is amazing!
The Ninja Creami 7-in-1 is also highly rated. It has a few fewer functions and the containers are 16 oz. If you’re going this route, just make 2/3 of each of my recipes and modify the nutritional info to 2/3!
An immersion (stick) blender.
Cuisinart Smart Stick Blender. This fits right into the container, so you can mix your base without having any extra dishes. It makes it all streamlined. You could do it in a food processor, but that’s a lot of cleaning after each flavor. The immersion blender makes it so easy and tidy that you’ll use it all the time! (And not ice cream related, but combining a stick blender and a mason jar, sauces and dips are a breeze!)
Extra containers!
The Ninja Creami Deluxe comes with 2 containers. After you blend your base, you have to stick it in the freezer for 24 hours before it goes in the Creami. I bought two extra sets of 4 containers so that I’d have a total of 10 to work with. I personally went with generic. They are cheap and work just as well! BE SURE TO GET THE RIGHT CONTAINERS FOR YOUR MACHINE!!!! THEY ARE NOT INTERCHANGEABLE!
4 pack of the 24 oz Deluxe size 4 pack of the 16 oz 7-in-1 size
Wine glass covers.
10 Silicone Mug Cup Covers. Huh???? Yeah. Things expand when they freeze. The top of your concoction is perfectly level when you put it in your freezer. You pull it out and some weird frozen sculpture is trying to emerge from the surface. We don’t want to break our Creami blade! What to do? Some people put their mixtures in the freezer with the lids off until they freeze. Others shave down the icy protrusion. I just pop a wine glass cover right on the mixture’s surface and pop my lid on. Solved!
Protein powders
The first two are the main two I use for everything! (I’m putting links for the 2 lb containers, but the 5 lb are more economical!) The next three are fabulous, one recipe powders to add to your collection after the main two!
BOTH BOOKS Vanilla ice cream whey Extreme milk chocolate whey
BOOK ONE ONLY Girl Scout Thin Mint Girl Scout Coconut Caramel S’mores whey (Amazon only has the 5 lb right now. I’ll update the link when the put the 2 pound back up.)
BOOK TWO ONLY Ryse Jet-Puffed (Several flavors and I’m in love with this stuff!!! It’ll be in book 3, too!)
Quest Salted Caramel
Sweeteners
The first two are my main. I just use the confectioner’s version for red velvet, but you could totally use plain. Absolutely sub in whatever your favorite sweetener is!
Regular Swerve, Brown Sugar Swerve, Confectioner’s Swerve – There’s an Amazon pack with all 3!
Extracts
Sometimes, even with 1 ½ to 2 cups of fabulous fruit in the concoctions, the flavor just wants a little boost to push it from yummy to fabulous! I love extracts.
Vanilla extract Almond Extract Rum extract Butter extract Strawberry extract Raspberry extract
Peach flavor Buttery sweet dough emulsion Boiled cider
Add to the bin for Book Two Mango Coconut
Other Stuff
PB Fit (low fat peanut butter powder)
Max Mallows (zero sugar marshmallows) Only a 6-pack is available now. I’ll update this link when 1 or 3 are back up. Burnt Caramel flavor Max Mallows – pack of 6
Jordan’s Skinny Sauces Salted Caramel Fun addition, BUT!!!! It’s like a jack in the box. You lightly squeeze and nothing. A tiny bit more pressure and a violent stream rockets out! I look like Will Ferrell in Elf squeezing it in the most tentative manner. I just increased the size of the hole and it’s less dramatic. lol!
Lavender
Hibiscus
