Instructions

:
In a blender, combine the skim milk, almond milk, pistachio pudding mix, protein powder, and sweetener. Blend until smooth.
Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions until it reaches a soft-serve consistency.
In the last few minutes of churning, mix in the chopped pistachios.
Transfer to a freezer-safe container and freeze for at least 2 hours until firm.
Let sit at room temperature for a few minutes before serving for easier scooping.

Notes

:
For a vegan version, use plant-based protein powder and substitute skim milk with more almond milk.
If you don’t have an ice cream maker, freeze the mixture in a shallow container, stirring every 30 minutes until desired consistency is reached.
You can adjust sweetness by adding more or less sweetener.
