Strawberry “Almost Ice Cream”

Plan Z Phase: This is a Z2 (ZReduction) recipe.

Dieter Claire invented this recipe by modifying the fruit parfait recipe and adding extra frozen strawberries. She says, “it’s as close to ice cream as you can get.” Great idea, Claire!

Servings: Makes 4, 1/2 cup servings (because of the cottage/ricotta cheese, one serving counts as 2 oz of your protein allotment)

Ingredients:

• 1 cup of cottage cheese or ricotta cheese
• 1 tsp of Truvia
• 1 tsp of vanilla
• 2 cups of frozen strawberries
• sprinkle of nutmeg or pumpkin pie spice

Instructions:

All you have to do is whiz everything in your food processor or blender until smooth and light.

For this recipe, I recommend using a food processor. If you are using a blender, you’ll want to add up to 1/4 cup of water to get the right consistency.

The texture will be a little different from traditional ice cream (keep that in mind, texture-people), but the it’s got an awesome dreamy flavor!

Serve immediately.

Enjoy!

Cheers,
