by Jennifer Guerrero, posted in cookbook review, foodie, global, Greek, recipe, review

I love the new Milk Street 365! It’s a huge book of International recipes. The beauty of Milk Street is that they deliver all the flavor, but in the easiest way possible. Delicious minimalism. Totally appropriate for everyone from the kitchen newbie to the well-seasoned foodie! Did you pick up a copy yet?

Jen’s Protein Nice Creams: Unofficial guide to high-protein ice creams in the Ninja Creami™ Deluxe

My daughter kept putting on and taking off a Ninja Creami from her wish list. I had to see what the fuss was about. I kept seeing post after post of what looked like the stuff gym-lovers’ dreams were made of, protein shakes in ice cream form. I didn’t have a Ninja Creami, but I did have a killer ice cream maker. Yeah, I make some amazing gelato and ice cream.

I pulled out my ice cream maker and tried a few recipes I found. Intriguing, but not great.

The mixtures would freeze hard like cement at the very outer edges and then it would want to stop turning to finish the center. I was having a hard time scraping it out of there and making a ridiculous mess of myself and the kitchen.

And the recipes I was finding weren’t thrilling me. Pudding’s great, but I don’t want my ice cream to taste like pudding. I want it to taste like ice cream!
