Would Highly Recommend the Ninja Creami

WHAT IS THIS?
1) Ice cream maker made by the Ninja brand

WHO IS THIS FOR?
1) Those that do not get nearly enough protein
2) Those that like their sweets and eat ice cream anyway, this is a vastly superior option....far less sugar and fat depending on how its prepared
3) Over time...will be cost efficient as "healthier" higher protein ice cream alternatives like Halo Top are over $6 a pint at Harris Teeter. Still
much more sugar laden and protein deficient compared to how you can utilize the Creami.

HOW TO USE?
Lots of recipes online but this is what I have tested so far and the process..
1) Mix together milk and a protein powder. I use unsweetened vanilla almond milk and dymatize casein cinnamon bun flavor. For me I've used about 16oz
of milk for 65 grams of protein powder. I also add a small amount of xantham gum to make it creamier and thicker (less icy)...an alternative could be
sugar free pudding.
1.2) I've seen online some people will simply use the fairlife protein milk that I've recommended before either by itself or with additional protein
powder
2) I use a milk frother wand to get all the powder mixed up well...works better than a spoon.

3) Freeze for 8 to 24 hours
4) Defrost/Sit out for 20 mins
5) Install pint into creami, set to lite ice cream and then push button (takes 4 minutes)
5.2) You'll probably need to "re-spin" 1-3 times for the consistency you like and possibly add a touch of milk. There is a re-spin button that lasts
2 minutes
6) Ice cream is now done and ready to eat but it has an additional "mix-in" feature if you wish to add banana, nuts, peanut butter berries, chocolate
chips, etc. I've just mixed in peanut butter/nuts and blueberries
7) Calorie/Macronutrient wise ---
16oz of unsweetened almond milk + 65 grams of dymatize casein is 321 calories, 10g carbs, 9g fat, 48g protein, 2g sugar
Depending on what you choose to mix in those #'s will obviously change but if you developed a base of milk + protein powder you're looking at ratios like that
8) Everything is dishwasher safe and you could buy additional pint containers separately

EASY TO USE/RECOMMEND?
1) Yes...easy to use...very easy. I hate cooking, everything I eat is either done in a crockpot/air fryer/blender/instant pot with the exception of scrambling eggs after a workout. I prepare zero foods ever. This is basically dumping milk/protein powder together and somehow turning it into a very creamy consistency. It also turns that powder/mix into seemingly a large amount of food that takes a longer time to eat vs drinking a shake or mixing the two together as a pudding. 

2) Many need a heavy increase in protein compared to a very high fat diet that most people come in with...

3) If you are running proper diets and calories are getting cut sharp towards the end this most definitely feels like a larger quantity of food if we're comparing 24oz of ice cream to other 320 calorie food options.

  • 12 Tostitos hint of lime chips are 300 calories...not bags but individual chips...12
  • 1 bottle of coke is 240 calories and 65 grams of sugar
  • 6 oreos are 320 calories, 2g of protein and 50g of carbs, 28g of sugar
  • 2 krisky kreme glazed donuts are 380 calories, 22g fat, 6g of protein, 20g of sugar
