Blueberry Protein Ice Cream
Ever since I got a Ninja Creami ice cream maker, I have been having so much fun creating different ice cream recipes! I thought it would be so fun to make a blueberry version, and this recipe definitely doesn't disappoint! This recipe is packed with protein, antioxidants, and healthy fats! Ice cream with benefits is the way to go, and this may become your new favorite healthier frozen treat!
