Instructions

Keep Screen Awake

Ninja Creami version:

Add all the ingredients (except the strawberries and crackers) to an empty Ninja Creami pint and use an immersion blender to combine (or you can blend in a food processor or blender). Then add 1/2 of the strawberries and blend again.
Freeze for at least 12 hours.
Add a splash of milk or cream, then run through the Lite Ice Cream cycle once. Then make a well in the center of the ice cream and add the crushed graham crackers and remaining strawberries. Run through the mix-in cycle then top with whipped cream if desired and enjoy!

Loaf pan version:

Add the cottage cheese, protein powder, stevia, and vanilla to a large bowl and blend with an immersion blender (or blend with a food processor or high blender) until smooth. Add half of the strawberries and blend again until combined.
Then with a rubber spatula, fold in the cool whip, remaining strawberries and crushed graham crackers (save some crackers and strawberries for topping).
Transfer ice cream mixture to a loaf pan. Top with remaining strawberries and graham crackers.
Cover with cling/plastic wrap and freeze for 3-4 hours or until solid.
Take out and let sit for 10 minutes so it’s easier to scoop. Then scoop, top with whipped cream if desired and enjoy!

Ninja Creami Tips:
Prep in advance. I have found that I don't necessarily need to wait 24 hours, but if I make this ice cream the morning of, say 8 hours in advance, I am good!
Avoid Icy Edges. Run the container under hot water for 30 seconds before running it through the machine (or let sit out on the counter for 15-20 minutes). After the initial spin, run a butter knife or spoon along the sides and re-spin.
Additional Re-spins. If you like your ice cream more like soft serve, you can re-spin 2-3 times before adding in your mix ins. This will soften the ice cream. If you like your ice cream more scoop-able, I recommend sticking with 1 re-spin.
Don't overfill the container. The ice cream will expand in volume as your re-spin so don't worry if it looks like the pint isn't initially full. Leaving adequate room in the container will allow the ice cream to spin correct to make the best, most creamy ice cream.
