Before bed or mid-night snack
BEFORE BED OR MID-NIGHT SNACK
I found this one on some other board some time ago, it was GOOD
Take your 1 cup fat-free cottage cheese and mix it in a bowl with 1 scoop (any flavor) casein protein, add a bit of cold water so its a bit more soupy. Throw that in the freezer 2-3 hours before its time to eat.
Take 2 tbsp natural peanut butter (I used Smart Balance Creamy) and throw that in a small glass bowl with 1/3 cup warm water. Add a pack or two of splenda and a dash or two of cinnamon. Give this a 45-60 second zap in the microwave, then stir this up right after you pull it out until its well blended, blow on the mix as you stir and watch it turn to a cream like consistency! Throw that in the fridge to cool.
Now when its time to eat, take both items out and ice your now almost frozen protein mix with the peanut butter topping.

Strawberry/blueberry trifle
STRAWBERRY/BLUEBERRY TRIFLE
Ingredients:
10 oz angel food cake, cut into 1-inch cubes
2 pints strawberries, sliced
2 pints blueberries
For the cream filling:
8 tbsp fat-free sweetened condensed milk
2 cups cold water
1 package sugar-free white chocolate instant pudding mix
12 oz fat-free frozen whipped topping, thawed
1 scoop of chocolate protein powder
Directions:
Whisk the condensed milk and water in a bowl.
Whisk in the pudding mix and protein powder for 2 minutes. Let stand for 2 minutes or until soft-set; fold in the whipped topping.
Arrange half of the cake in the bottom of a 14-cup trifle dish.
Sprinkle evenly with a layer of blueberries.
Spread half of the cream mixture over the blueberries and gently spread (I piped it using a plastic bag and cut the corner off). Top with a layer of strawberries. Layer the remaining cake cubes on top of the strawberries, then add more blueberries and top with the remaining cream mixture.
Finish with the remaining strawberries and blueberries. Cover and refrigerate at least one 1 hour.

Detox Juice
Detox Juice
A freshly pressed vegetable juice that is meant to stimulate the elimination of toxins from your body should have the following properties:
1. The ability to encourage movement of waste products through your intestines.
2. The ability to encourage your digestive organs to release digestive juices that can help to optimally break down recently ingested food.
3. The ability to draw toxins out of your tissues.
With these properties in mind, here is one of the most effective detox juice recipes that I know of:
Artichoke, Cilantro, and Radish Detox Juice Recipe
Ingredients:
4 Jerusalem artichokes
2 handfuls of fresh cilantro
4 radishes
3 carrots
1 tablespoon of green food powder that contains chlorella
Directions:
Use a juicer to press all ingredients except green food powder into a vegetable juice.
Combine juice and green food powder in a bottle with a secure lid and shake well for 10 or more seconds. Enjoy within an hour of making this effective detox juice.
Notes:
- Jerusalem artichokes are rich in the soluble fiber inulin, which is known to encourage healthy bowel function.
- Cilantro and chlorella are regularly recommended by many health practitioners, myself included, for purposes of detoxification.
- Radishes are known to stimulate the release of bile from the gall bladder. Bile is needed for optimal digestion of fat.

Another great addition to this that I like to do,which will also up the protein content considerably is to top it off with a scoop of your favorite protein powder.Much better than powdered sugar.LOL

Wow
Wow what a tasty treat and I cant believe its only 162 calories too. This is fantastic. I would add some all natural honey to the recipe though. I think that it would be a good addition. I also think you could add some half and half or sweet cream as well. Both of these would make this recipe even sweeter! Thanks for posting.
