Diet Talk and MATCHA ICE CREAM RECIPE

Okay so I was looking into this sirtuin diet and while I will not be following it to the letter because I don't really believe in DRASTIC calorie cuts, it did have some good things in it. 

I need to eat more sirtuin foods.... which looking into it I actually have been eating pretty healthy and a few of them... 

Drinks: Coffee!! Red wine, matcha <3 ( i have been drinking a lot of coffee... might be why i'm keeping off the like... 2lbs ive lost) -- coffee while at work, i'll try to alternate water with it, and i'll try to start having at least half a glass of red wine a night. 

so for snacks: apples, blueberries, strawberries

for salad: kale, arugula, celery, red onion (can use in cooking too but i try to keep salad around for snacking)

seasoning: cappers, chilis, garlic cloves, turmeric (I really need to get some turmeric... it's so good for you on so many levels)

SOY SOY SOY: Texturized soy protein... add it to the meat to make it stretch. So a little meat can go a longer way. Tofu. Meat substitutes/vegetarian "meat" (i can def work with that). 

Desserts:

- 85% dark chocolate for all baking desserts moving forward and anytime I want to eat something sweet

- MATCHA ICE CREAM - its something that i LOVE and never thought to make myself because.i def know how. 

MATCHA ICECREAM RECIPE

- 6 egg yolks

-1 cup white sugar ( i will probably cut this down to 1/2 a cup... maybe substitute with some honey)

- 2 cups heavy whipping cream

- 1-3 tablespoons of matcha (to taste)

- 1 packet of flavorless gelatine

-1/2 cup of cold water

1) pour gelatin in cold water, stir and set to the side.

2)combine egg yolk and sugar in a bowl and mix until smooth and lemon colored. Set the bowl over a pot of simmering water for 5 minutes stir continuously.... mixture should feel hot to the touch. 

3) Remove the bowl from heat and mix in the rehydrated gelatine. Allow to cool to room temp ( 15-20 mins in the freezer should do it)

4) whip the cream into medium stiff peaks, add in matcha. 

5) fold the whipped cream into egg mixture and freeze!
