My inspiration for this post comes from my dear friends Cathleen and Meghan. They both started a "Paleo or Fail-eo" lifestyle in January and have been going strong with it for the past few months. They spend their cheat days indulging in bowls of cereal, Chic-Fil-a and late night Fuel Pizza snacks but stick to a strict Paleo diet during the week. Last night they invited me over for a Paleo friendly dinner which included Pesto chicken, baked asparagus, steamed cauliflower and salad. I wanted to bring a Paleo friendly dessert so I consulted my favorite website Pinterest for some ideas. I came across a recipe for "Banana Ice cream" and was shocked to find out the only ingredient.......BANANA'S!! I really thought this idea seemed way to easy so I HAD to try it out!
 |
| Chop 3 ripe bananas into chunks and freeze till solid on a cookie sheet (this took about 30mins) |
 |
| After bananas are frozen toss into a blender or food processor. |
 |
| The texture will go from chunky to a smooth Ice cream like consistency. You can eat right away for a soft serve type Ice cream or place back in the freezer for a more solid texture. |
 |
| The results were a hit! Definitely a cheap and healthy dessert. We talked about adding melted peanut butter or some dark chocolate bits for added flavor. Thanks to Cathleen for modeling her Ice cream! |
