From the Zone Diet
Ingredients
1/2 cup Edensoy Original Soy Milk or similar brand, chilled
1 teaspoon unsweetened almond or macadamia nut butter
14 grams unflavored or unsweetened vanilla soy protein powder
1 heaping tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder
1/3 ripe, medium banana, peeled, sliced, and frozen
3/4 cup frozen, unsweetened cherries
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Optional ingredients
1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon stevia extract powder or 2 to 4 drops stevia extract liquid
1 tablespoon apple-fiber powder
3 to 4 ice cubes
Instructions
1. Pour soy milk into a blender container. Add nut butter, protein powder, unsweetened cocoa, vanilla, and stevia. Add apple-fiber powder if desired (for added thickness and blood sugar control). Cover and blend until smooth. Stop and scrape down the sides with a spatula.
2. With the motor running, add the frozen fruit through the top feeder. When blended, add ice cubes one or two at a time, blending on the ice-crushing setting until you achieve desired thickness. Stop and start blender, pushing the pulse button repeatedly until ice is completely crushed and mixture is smooth and thick. Try a spoonful. Add more stevia if a sweeter taste is desired.
3. Pour into 4 custard cups or dessert dishes and serve immediately, or 4 to 8 small paper cups, then freeze until firm, about 3 hours. If frozen solid, remove from freezer 10 to 15 minutes before serving, or as needed to soften to an ice cream texture. Alternatively, pour into a tall fountain glass to serve one person for breakfast.
