Protein-Packed Ice Cream! :) - Recipe from Oxygen Magazine
Ice Cream
5 egg whites
1 scoop whey protein powder, flavor of your choice
1-2 packets Stevia
Peanut Butter Cups
1 scoop chocolate whey protein powder (I used a pre-packaged chocolate protein shake and didn’t add the water)
1 tbsp all-natural peanut butter
1 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
1-2 packets Stevia
4 oz water
Directions
For the ice cream, place egg whites in a mixing bowl. Use a handheld electric mixer to beat them into stiff peaks. Fold in the whey. Add sweetener to taste. Freeze for at least 1 hour (longer if you have time).
Meanwhile, make the peanut butter cups by blending all the ingredients together in a blender.
Divide the peanut butter mixture into round muffin tins (I used a rubber, heart shaped “tin”. Makes them easier to remove), filling them about 3/4 full. Place filled muffin tin in freezer and let freeze for about an hour or until firm.
When ready to eat, scoop ice cream into a bowl and top with two peanut butter cups.

SPINACH BROWNIES (not actually related to the dessert, except by shape!)
AKA crustless quiche AKA If you only make one recipe from me EVER, make this one.
(10 ounce) frozen package spinach1/2 cup all-purpose flour1/2 teaspoon salt1/2 teaspoon baking powder1 egg1/2 cup milk1/4 cup butter, melted1/2 onion; chopped1/2 medium red pepper; chopped1 clove garlic2 pieces of bacon; chopped1/2 cup part skim shredded mozzarella cheese
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease a 8×8 inch baking dish.
Place spinach in a medium saucepan with enough water to cover. Bring to a boil. Lower heat to simmer and cook until spinach cooked, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat, drain thoroughly and set aside.
Sautee red peppers, onions, garlic and bacon in a pan over medium heat until vegetables are slightly softened.
In a large bowl, mix flour, salt and baking powder. Stir in egg, milk and butter. Mix in spinach, pepper mixture and mozzarella cheese.
Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish. Bake in the preheated oven 30 to 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool before serving.
I didn’t have enough spinach so I added some frozen peas! Delicious! Mine come out to about 125 calories per square, but yours may differ depending on how many squares you cut the bars into, how many calories are in your cheese, and how much bacon you use (I add a little extra).
While these may not be a dessert, I often choose to eat them INSTEAD of my dessert. That’s how much I love these damn things.

reblogging this again because i just made these for lunch and DAMN they are sooo good! i made a few changes though, and doubled the recipe so it fit in a 8x12 pan. here’s my variation:
3 1/2 cups fresh spinach
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup wheat flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
2 large eggs
1 cup skim milk
1/4 cup canola oil
1 onion
1 medium red pepper
2 cloves garlic
slightly less than 1 cup part skim shredded mozzarella cheese
seriously though, these things are amazing. i cut mine into 8 pieces and each was 169 cal.
