NEW FLAVORS of Enlightened Ice Cream!

Are you familiar with Enlightened Ice Cream?


If you're not, you should be! They are a lower calorie, higher protein ice cream that come in tons of fun flavors! Now they've come out with five NEW flavors to add to their line up!
  1. Cookies and Cream
  2. French Toast
  3. Glazed Donut
  4. S'mores
  5. Movie Night

1. Cookies and Cream  - This is the most classic of the new releases and it did not disappoint! It had mostly small cookie bits but did have a few bigger cookie chunks. It had a creamy texture and tasted just like the real deal cookies and cream ice cream! It's a win!


2. French Toast - I found this one to be super sweet (not a problem to me), with a sweet base and a thick maple swirl which verged on a caramel flavor. Again, it was creamy and tasty! The second time around was even better than the first - I love it!


3. Glazed Donut - I had read reviews before mine saying it tasted like Enlightened's Birthday Cake flavor with the addition of a chocolate swirl. I thought that was pretty accurate but it didn't bother me. Aren't donuts little cakes after all? The chocolate swirl was almost fudge-like, super thick and tasted just like the icing on a chocolate glazed donut! The copious sprinkles with the chocolate icing swirl and cake flavored ice cream had me seeing donuts!









4. S'mores - This ice cream was a sweet base abundant with graham cracker bits and a thick chocolate swirl. Enlightened doesn't skimp on swirls! I really liked it although I didn't taste much of a marshmallow flavor.

5. Movie Night - This one was probably the most unique of all the flavors! It was described as butter popcorn ice cream with chocolate chunks and a caramel swirl. It delivered! There were TONS of small chocolate chunks and a flowing river of caramel. I got a slight buttery flavor, but nothing too crazy. Sweet and salty is classic combo! This is definitely a pint I will reach for again!

You've seen edible cookie dough recipes all over the World Wide Web.

Gut Healthy Gummy Bears! Keto Friendly

Image
Team Sour or Team Sweet? I'm team sour all the way! These gummies are surprisingly easy to make if you have a gummy bear mold (they're very inexpensive on amazon!) and they have the gut-health benefits of prebiotic fiber and gelatin! First they're sour, then they're sweet. Ingredients: 40g VitaFiber IMO syrup  1 tbsp gelatin liquid stevia to taste (I used orange stevia) 1/2 cup water Directions: Heat the mixture on the stove until bubbling.  Use the dropper to fill the gummy bear molds.  Place in fridge until set.  Just before eating, toss the gummy bears in a mixture of citric acid powder, and granulated sweetener of choice (I used a monk fruit/erythritol blend).  Voila! Sour gummies!

Keto Meringues! Sugar Free!

Image
I recently had the idea to make Meringue cookies and my curiosity was piqued at the idea of making sugar free meringue cookies. I wondered if it would work!  3 calories a piece?! I'll take 10!  I took to Google, and to my surprise there were recipes with Splenda, erythritol, stevia and beyond! I decided to try my hand at sugar free meringues with an erythritol based sweetener I just purchased recently. The brand is Swerve and I purchased it from Luckyvitamin.com. It claims to have no aftertaste! Meringues can be a bit tricky to set up due to humidity and given that it was a hot August day in North Carolina, I think they turned out pretty well! The texture was good on most of them but a few of them were still a bit soft in the middle.  Factors working against me: I didn't have enough egg whites I didn't have cream of tartar I was attempting sugar free I didn't have parchment paper Humidity You may be thinking, why even bother? Well, I don
