If there’s one flavor that instantly reminds me of warm Mediterranean evenings, it’s pistachio. There’s something about the delicate nuttiness, the creamy richness, and that soft, subtle sweetness that just feels luxurious — yet simple and earthy.

This vanilla bean ice cream became my foundation recipe. Every flavor I’ve created since — from pistachio to chocolate and strawberry cheesecake— grew from this simple base. Rich, creamy, and endlessly adaptable, it’s the perfect starting point for anyone who loves ice cream but wants to keep it smart, clean, and healthy.

There are few things more comforting than a scoop of Rocky Road ice cream — that mix of rich chocolate, crunchy almonds, and pillowy marshmallows just hits the spot. But if you’ve ever tried to make a low-carb version at home, you know how tricky it can be to get that same creamy, scoopable texture without sugar or eggs.

Most people don’t realize that marshmallows started out as a health food — originally made with marshmallow root for soothing the throat. Over time, industrial food companies turned them into pure sugar fluff.

This no-cook Mint Chocolate Chip ice cream delivers old-fashioned ice cream shop flavor — without the sugar or complicated prep. It’s made with real cream, half & half, allulose for natural sweetness, and a splash of vodka for that perfect soft-scoop texture. The result? A lusciously smooth, mint-infused ice cream with just the right amount of chocolatey crunch in every bite. It’s nostalgic, simple, and made from ingredients you actually recognize.

If you love rich, creamy ice cream with a tangy twist, this Natilla Dream Ice Cream is your new favorite treat. Inspired by Costa Rica’s beloved natilla (a silky sour cream used on just about everything), this recipe transforms everyday ingredients into a refreshing dessert that’s low-carb, sugar-free, and wellness-friendly.

Is there anything more comforting than the flavor of strawberry cheesecake… in ice cream form? This luscious, low-carb treat is a dreamy blend of tangy cream cheese, sweet strawberries, and creamy goodness — without the sugar crash.

A creamy, keto-friendly ice cream made with collagen peptides for an extra protein boost and silky texture.
