Ingredients

16 oz. cottage cheese (organic small curd - 1 or 2% to keep the fat low)
2 tbsp. lemon pudding mix (I use the brand Simply Delish (way better for you ingredients and sugar free). Use the code KATIE10 for a discount on their site:))
1/8 cup maple syrup (organic)
12 graham crackers (I use the Simple Mills sweet honey thins as a healthy alternative)

Instructions

1
Combine all ingredients except for the graham crackers in your Ninja CREAMi pint container & freeze. This should take about 3-4 hours to be completely solid.
2
Take it out of the freezer and allow it to sit out on the counter for 15-20 minutes so that it blends nicely.
3
Blend the ice cream in your Ninja CREAMi using the lite ice cream setting.
4
Make a divot in the middle of the ice cream. Add the graham crackers and then select the "mix in" setting.
5
Immediately dig in and enjoy!
