Strawberry-Banana Ice Cream



Where I'm from it's finally strawberry picking season and summer has arrived! So why not enjoy them both with a cold, healthy treat (or meal)?


Ingredients: 
  • 5-10 strawberries (depending on size and flavor you want to achieve)

  • 4 frozen bananas

  • 1/3-1/2 cup water (to aid in blending)

  • 1-2 tsp. of organic vanilla powder

Method:

The first time I made this, I used fresh, refrigerated strawberries with the frozen bananas and it still turned out with the consistency of ice cream. You can also use fresh, frozen strawberries. Freeze the bananas with or without the skins on. I’ve done it both ways. Blend above ingredients and enjoy!
