Basic cooking... kinda

It's my first summer in Antioch and holy crap is it hot! Lately I've been giving into temptation and eating ice cream whenever I've felt hot and need a quick cool off. The only problem? The guilt of eating soo much ice cream, knowing fully well it's not good for me. Then I found these posts; Twins that Blog & Choosing Raw. At first I thought no freaking way would this work out but I decided to try it.


It's really quite simple; chop up bananas, put in freezer, once frozen throw in food processor with a bit of milk (fat free or otherwise), blend for five minutes, you now have frozen yogurt like banana-ey goodness.




Now here are two things I learned and changed when I made this the second time.

1) My food processor refused to really blend evenly so I tried my regular blender for a shorter amount of time, consistency turned out perfect.

2) Even with chocolate syrup it really does need a second kick of flavor so I added peanut butter, delicious.


So there you have it, a healthy alternative to ice cream that's incredibly simple to make. Enjoy!
