Marcella Smith says
Thank you so much for your blog and all the time you put into it. You have really helped me as I am still feeling new to THM. (5wks) It is so nice to have someone more experienced who is willing to share what they have learned with us newbies. Have a wonderful day and may God bless you and yours.
Its_Gwen says
Thank you, Marcella! It gets easier & easier as you go with THM. I’m so happy to share what I’ve learned. 🙂

Just made the Egg Nog smoothie! Yum! I did FP and added a little gluc to increase the creaminess. Looking forward to trying it S. thanks!!

I have been making an Egg Nog Recipe I found on THM Pinterest, but it you have to cook the yolk in a double boiler…I don’t always have time for that. This recipe of yours looks yummy and easy…can’t wait to try it.
Thank you for all the work you put into your blog. I always look forward to Trim Healthy Tuesday.
Joyfulmomof6 says
quick question…(this was delicious, BTW!)
If I substitute half and half (4.5 g fat/1 carb) for the cream, it would still be FP, correct?
Its_Gwen says
*barely* but yes. 🙂
Its_Gwen says
Wait..you’d need to consider the fat in the almond milk & the cottage cheese too. So a light S.
Its_Gwen says
Hope you enjoy it! 🙂 And I love getting to share here each Tuesday. 🙂
Collette Buffaloe says
Sipping on the eggnog right now. DELISH! Made it S style, but I think I’ll make an FP version and take it to work tomorrow. YUM…
Michelle says
Um! WOW! That Frozen Eggnog was AMAZING! Yeah, might have to do that every day through the holiday’s to keep me from eating things I shouldn’t. My kids LOVED it too…I had to leave the room so they would leave me and it alone 😉
Its_Gwen says
Glad you guys are enjoying it! 🙂
Patty says
Oh, wow! This was so good. My husband loves eggnog and he said this was delicious. Even my 14 yr old son who doesn’t want to eat “any of that weird THM stuff” liked it. I am so glad that we are getting away from sugar slowly and finding that food can still taste good. Thanks for sharing this recipe!
Lisa G says
Can I replace the egg with meringue powder, or does it still taste like eggnog without the egg?
Gwen Brown says
I’d stick with the pasteurized carton eggs…haven’t tried the powder, but I think it’s far pricier and I’m not crazy about the health effects of spray drying on eggs.
Lee says
Love eggnog and this is wonderful and on plan! I do sometimes add a splash of butter extract too! Thanks!!
lynn ellis says
Why is the eggnog recipe called frozen? I Must have missed something ?
Nikki Stone (Business) says
This was amazing!!! I added a shot of the real deal since I didn’t have rum flavoring…sooo decadent, even as FP!!!
Wondering how it would be if I added a little okra!?
Gwen Brown says
Did you try it? What did you think? 🙂
Sara Moyer says
Gwen, thank you so much for this recipe. I used it today to make a copycat Starbucks eggnog latte. It was delicious!
Monalisa says
Questions about doing this dairy-free: do you mean coconut milk from a can (much thicker) or from a carton? Would I use the coconut milk to replace the amounts of the cottage cheese and cream as well as the almond milk, for a total of 1 and 3/4 cup coconut milk? Thanks!
Gwen Brown says
I would use the canned coconut milk as a sub for the cottage cheese. If you want to lighten it up, use part (thick) canned coconut, and part carton coconut.
Destiny says
Such a weird question but can I lightly cook my egg? I don’t have pasteurize on hand. Just regular eggs.
Gwen Brown says
I have never tried pasteurizing my own eggs…I bet there are instructions to do so without it turning into a solid? If it were heated until it began to cook and solidify, I don’t think the results would be palatable texture wise.
