    FAGE Ice Cream

    I like this more than real ice cream. I had 200 g of FAGE Total and made two ice cream desserts out of it.

    The first one...

    100 g FAGE
    1/2 tbsp lemon zest
    1/3 tsp vanilla
    1/2 package Splenda
    1/3 tsp cocoa

    Mix everything but the cocoa and freeze**. Sprinkle with cocoa before serving.

    Calories: 135; Fat: 10.0 g; Protein: 6.8 g; Carbs: 3.8 g; Dietary fiber: 0.3 g; Net carbs: 3.5 g

    And the second...

    100 g FAGE
    1 tbsp sliced almonds
    13 g grated Lindt 99% Cocoa chocolate, i.e. 1/4 of the 50 g bar (I actually cut it with a knife to resemble the pieces of chocolate you find in stracciatella ice cream)

    Mix everything and freeze**.

    Calories: 248; Fat: 20.8 g; Protein: 10.5 g; Carbs: 5.9 g; Fiber: 1.8 g; Net carbs: 4.1 g

    **I left it overnight in the freezer, but I think you could also do it in an ice cream maker. I don't own one, so not sure about that.

    Wow! I'd never have thought of making ice-cream with Fage Total. I love the stuff! Must try. Thanks for sharing Georgiana!

        I tried to make it today using another brand of greek yogurt (cheaper). It's still in the freezer, but the consistency didn't seem to be the same. I added strawberries (2-3) to it though... I'm not sure if that could be the problem (because they are more watery or something?). Guess I'll see tomorrow morning.

        Any ideas what else could go in it? I'd love to hear if anyone tries other variations they like.

          I'm thinking a sprinkling of chopped nuts on top... like those cornettos, perhaps?

            You could add some chopped mint leaves. What about pumpkin? Not together of course, separate recipes. Ooh, with the chocolate, add some chili powder! It's Mexican chocolate, and it's really good!

                It is a brand of Greek yogurt. From what I understood on the Board, you cannot find it Canada. There was a discussion about this going on in the OWL forum:
