Ingredients
Chocolate Strawberry Healthy Ninja Creami Base Recipe
1 Pre Made Chocolate Protein Drink (11 ounces) see notes
4tablespoonsUnflavored Collagen(20 grams)
1/2teaspoon peppermint extract
1-2tablespoonsmilk of choice, (I use almond milk)
Instructions
Add: Add your ingredients into your Ninja Creami pint in the order listed. Stir, whisk or use a frother to combine the ingredients. If your collagen mixes really easily then stirring with a spoon will be all you need to do. I just use a blender so I don't have chunks of collagen. Pour the blended ingredients into your Ninja Creami pint container if you used a blender.
Freeze: Place the lid on the Creami Pint, place in your freezer on a flat surface. Freeze for 24 hours.
Make: Remove the lid, place the Ninja Creami blade lid on your pint. Or follow the instructions for your model. Choose "Light Ice Cream" mode. Once it cycles thru one time remove the lid. This ice cream will be powdery. Add 2 tablespoons of your milk of choice ( I use almond milk) or water. Replace the blade and now choose the "Remix" mode.
Mix ins: After your "remix" cycle, make a well in the center of your ice cream. This recipe typically naturally leaves a whole in the middle. Replace the blade and run your ice cream through a mix in cycle. Then enjoy! I find that the Ninja Creami really grinds up mix ins. I like to split my mix in and do half as a mix in and half as a topping. Especially cookies, cause...yum.
Notes
Listen…this recipe is only going to be as good as the protein drink you use. If you use a gross protein drink, your ice cream will be gross. Use a pre-made chocolate protein drink you like and you will in turn love this recipe
