Ended up with some excess calories left over in my budget today so I went a little heavier on my desert than normal. This here is about 105 kcal of Boo’s brownies, 140 kcal of PB2 and banana ice cream (got a Ninja Creami about a week ago and have been using the hell out of it since, I love this thing so much), and about 40 kcal of 100’s and 1000’s (for only 10 grams jeez, I know they’re basically just raw sugar but still!). About 17g protein total I believe (wasn’t really aiming for maximum protein but not terrible!).
You could definitely get lower with the calorie count in something like this for the same volume (remove the sprinkles and use a lower calorie creami recipe mainly, should be able to get it down to around 200 cal total pretty easily) but I’m not quite that desperate thankfully. Also this bowl contains a truly horrifying amount of zero cal sweetener (primarily monk fruit and erythritol in my case).

The recipes I used for the brownies can be found here: https://imheatherr.com/boos-ridiculous-brownies/
Just kind of ballparked it for the creami recipe, first attempt at PB so definitely room for improvement, but here’s the rough recipe anyway:
– 1 banana (100 grams peeled)
– 25 grams PB2
– 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk
– 1/2 cup 1.5% light milk
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– monk fruit / erythritol blend (didn’t really measure, just kept adding until it tasted sweet enough)
– 1/8-ish tps xanthan gum (probably not really necessary with the banana)
Blend everything together, freeze for 24 hours, end ran it through the Cream once with the light ice cream setting.
Boo’s brownies really are the best 🤌🏼 so is protein ice cream.
I bought a Ninja Blender a few months ago and enjoy eating 2 litres of ice cream most days 🤣
280 calories is a snack, how many r u on like 1000 lmao
