Protein-style! Honestly, I didn’t take a picture of this because frankly, it is NOT pretty. It is quickly becoming my favorite night time snack though-so here is the recipe!
Frozen Tapioca Mousse-Protein Style!
  • one scoop pea protein
  • sweetener of choice-to taste
  • 1/2 tsp xanthan gum
  • 1/2 cup almond milk
  • 1/2 cup COLD water
  • 1 Tbs cocoa
  • 1-2 Tbs chia seeds
Vigorously whisk all ingredients together in a bowl until mixture starts to thicken. Freeze for an hour or so,stirring every 15 minutes or so. Add a few scoops of nut butter and ENJOY!
The seeds get that jelly texture that is so appealing , not to mention that there is nothing bad in this dessert-it is guilt free! I added my homemade cashew butter to mine, but you can leave that out if you are watching calories.

Yeah, I put it in my empty almond butter jar-What of it?
Cashew Butter
  • 1/2 lb raw cashews
  • 1 Tbs bland oil-I used regular ole vegetable oil
  • 1/2 tsp salt
Roast cashews in a single layer at 350 degrees until just starting to brown-it takes anywhere from 5-10 minutes depending on your oven. Let cool to the touch and whir in your processor until it makes a coarse meal. Add oil and continue to process until it is as smooth as you like it. Add salt and go another few seconds. Transfer to container and keep refrigerated.
CAUTION: This stuff is RICH! I can handle really rich foods but this takes it to the limit! Use like you would any other nut butter,but just be aware that the amount you usually use may overwhelm you in this case-it did me!
