Ninja Creami Vanilla Protein Ice Cream

This Ninja Creami vanilla protein ice cream starts with yogurt, milk, vanilla protein powder, and vanilla bean paste. You blend it, freeze it in the pint for 24 hours, then spin. Hands-on time is 10 minutes, and one pint makes 2 servings. Sweeten it with allulose for a sugar-free pint, or use regular sugar. It's an easy make-ahead dessert, after-school snack, or post-workout treat.
