The only advantage of Store Bought LC Ice Cream is consistency. For some reason when I make it, it will not keep its consistency. It freezes hard as a rock when I stick it in the freezer. So, I end up making only as much as I plan to eat. Must be my ingredients. Here's my favorite formula:
1 1/2 cups Heavy Cream
1 1/2 cups Unsweetened Soy Milk (Belsoy)
2 tsp. Real Vanilla Extract (Not Imitation)
1/2 tsp. Stevia Extract Powder

Vanilla has a tiny amount.
So, would it be ok to have a cup of ice cream when just out of induction if it is made from these 3 ingredients and if it is, why would anyone pay so much for low carb store brand ice cream (unless you are really busy and just don't have the time)?
I am very new to this WOE and get very confused at times.
