This healthy ice cream has become an almost daily treat in my home.
It’s highly addictive, high in protein, and creamy delicious!

    Holli – I had a similar experience. I stopped to do some shopping at Costco and the Blendtec rep was there. He made a green “ice cream” that I was sure (and I’m an IIN Holistic Health Coach, open to trying unusually created concoctions) I’d find revolting – yet, the opposite happened. It was so delicious! I’m glad to find your recipe and will definitely give it a try! Thanks for sharing. Love your site!

      Let me know how you like it:) I’ve tried all kinds of variations lately, including using hemp seed (about 1/3 cup)
      Have fun!
      Love,
      Holli
