I'm here for weekend at my mom's house to unwind, and after a trip to the gym we were craving a healthy reward. With a little experimentation we came up with a delicious treat. It has the consistency of ice cream with none of the bad stuff. Read on for our recipe!
THE RECIPE: Skinny Antioxidant Ice Cream
(Serves 3-4)
The insides of one ripe Haas avocado
One apple of your choice, cored and chopped
One ripe banana, peeled and in chunks
2 cups of frozen antioxidant blend fruit (strawberries, blueberries, pomegranate and cherry)
2 cups tightly packed mixture of greens (we used baby kale and spinach)
1 cup of almond milk
1 teaspoon of chia seeds
2 teaspoons hemp hearts
2/3 cup of ice cubes
1 tablespoon honey or agave (optional, only if you like it a little sweeter)
Put ingredients into blender and blend until smooth and creamy. You can add or subtract almond milk or ice cubes to get the right consistency.
Hope you are enjoying a relaxing weekend! xo
