RECIPE INSTRUCTIONS

» How to Make High Protein Mango Ice Cream

1. Slice and dice the mangoes for a tropical, fruity base. Reserve 3-4 tablespoons for topping, and set them aside.
2. In a high-speed blender or food processor, add the roasted pistachios and blend into a coarse powder. Next, add the cottage cheese, honey, chopped mangoes, and vanilla extract. Blend until smooth and creamy.
3. Pour the mango mixture into a shallow, freezer-safe container. Top with the reserved mangoes, and sprinkle with 2 tablespoons of chopped roasted pistachios. Cover with plastic wrap and freeze for about 4-6 hours or until set.
4. Remove the ice cream from the freezer, and let it sit at room temperature for 10 minutes before scooping. Scoop this high-protein mango ice cream into bowls or ice cream cones. Garnish with extra pistachios and chopped mangoes, if desired. Your delicious high-protein pistachio mango ice cream is ready. Enjoy this protein-rich mango ice cream as a refreshing treat or even as a post-workout snack!

RECIPE NOTES

1. If you want a smoother texture, after an hour of freezing, stir the mixture to break up ice crystals. Repeat after another hour.
2. For the best creamy texture, use full-fat cottage cheese. If texture isn't a big concern, you can use low-fat cottage cheese.
