Chocolate Ice Cream

For ice cream makers, my basic no cook chocolate ice cream. When I first got my ice cream maker, we tried some of the recipes that require you to "cook" the batter, and use eggs and stuff. Too involved, takes too much time etc.

This is a great recipe, fast, easy, good a variety of ways (esp with peanut butter on the side...:D) I use dark cocoa b/c i don't like milk/regular chocolate much anymore-and did you know when you eat dark chocolate, you only need a tiny amount to satisfy a craving? But eating any other kind intensifies your craving and you need a lot more. It took a little bit to "change" my tastes to really love dark chocolate, but now there is no going back!

Chocolate Ice Cream

3T cocoa (i use dark)
3T sugar
1C cream
1/2C half and half
1t vanilla

whisk together, pour in, follow ice cream maker directions

Chicken Wing Dip

Seems like there's many varieties and ways to make this-this is what I do, and Keith loves it-I think it's pretty good too, but I can only eat so much of it, it's kinda greasy and I don't know...good but I like it in a buffet eating it with a LOT of other stuff, not as a main course or anything. Keith disagrees :) Thanks to BETH for introducing us to this magical dip LOL Chicken Wing Dip 2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened 3/4 cup wing sauce of your choice (we use Frank's) 1 cup bleu cheese 2 cups diced cooked chicken 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese preheat the oven to 350 In a medium bowl, stir together the cream cheese and sauce until well blended. Mix in the bleu cheese, chicken and Cheddar cheese. Spread into a 9x13 inch baking dish Bake for 30 minutes in the preheated oven. If oil collects on the top, dab it off using a paper towel. Serve with tortilla chips.

Product Review

Keith and I made a pact awhile ago to try new things. Every week we attempt to try one new thing we have previously never had, or been scared to try or whatever. And it's been awesome, we've been enjoying so many things that we've been missing out on, and Mairi of course loves anything LOL so she benefits from it as well. A few weeks ago while grocery shopping, I spotted this jar of Tikka Masala. I was like, hmm, that looks good and healthy and nice to have for the times I don't want to cook or whatever. I grabbed it, bought and promptly threw it in the back of my cupboard. Keith busted it out tonight, and made a FABULOUS chicken and quinoa dish (we are obsessed with quinoa, did you know it's like BREASTMILK? and you all know how i feel about that :P It's a complete protein with an essential amino acid balance close to breastmilk!) and wow. Now I want to make it, and so shortly I'll be trying out a recipe for it, but in the meantime, if you come across this...

Challenges

Prob one of the toughest part of Restoration Wellness program the past two weeks has been time management for meal Prep. So this week my goal is to focus on that. More meal Prep and less coming home so late bc football in Buffalo or bc of being at rehearsal for my shows and having to still make a whole dinner and then eating late. It’s messing w me making sure I’m done eating 3 hours before bed. So even though I have had a hard time w this, I’m still losing weight and doing great on the plan. But it’s important to fine tune things and be 100%!!! Work in progress over here. Meal prepped this morning for lunch and dinner 💪🏽
