Ingredients
- 1 cup Califia Farms Unsweetened Vanilla Almond Milk DIVIDED
- 1 scoop Ideal Lean Mint Chocolate Protein Powder (or your favorite chocolate protein powder... but this one's good.
- 1 tbs cocoa powder
- 2 tbs PB Fit or PB2 powdered peanut butter
- 50 grams frozen riced cauliflower I use Birds Eye from you average grocery store frozen veggie section- can't taste a thing, just adds more (frozen) volume.
- 2 droppers of liquid stevia I have vanilla flavored and love it.
- 1/2 tsp xanthan gum small packs at Walmart like yeast.. larger bag on amazon helps make it thick and creamy.
- Ice if yours isn't thick enough
- 4 tbs fat free whipped cream
- Sprinkle of mini chocolate chips 3 grams
- Purely Elizabeth Chocolate Sea Salt Granola 10 grams
Instructions
- I like to weigh 200 grams of almond milk into little baggies and freeze ahead of time. (A better idea would be to freeze in ice cube trays! But I've yet to get some.)
- Add frozen almond milk (thaw for 20 seconds if you think your blender won't handle it that solid), 40 grams of unfrozen almond milk, and the next 6 ingredients until smooth. I have to help it along with that stirring thing that comes with the Blendtec. For the life of me I can't think of a name for that.
- If for some reason yours isn't thick enough, add a little ice.
- Pour in jar or bowl and top with whipped cream, chocolate chips, and granola... Later I added some Waldenfarms Caramel syrup with some more PB Fit stirred in.
Notes
Of course, like everything in the world, it's even better with a drizzle of real peanut butter if you have a little fat to spare! I've also stirred in an entire Double Chocolate Mighty Muffin for dessert which was amazing!
