Go Bananas!!

B-A-N-A-N-A-S! Go Bananas!


A while back, I mentioned a focus and personal strive towards healthier lifestyle and eating. While at that time, I was still new and researching the Paleo diet, I had opted for a more "go with the body" feel, I still ended up naturally gravitating to the Paleo template. However, this post is not about that. I will update more on it later as I have found that friends and family ask me about it and I find myself hesitant to really delve into the topic. It usually ends up being more about defending the "Paleo" or trying to simplify a description of it, which in turn, does not answer any questions and spreads the mis-perceptions about the diet (which it really IS NOT a diet, it is a eating lifestyle). Anyways, more about that later on how it was to transition to Paleo and my assessment of it since trying it.


Long story short, I have scoured the internet looking for recipes for cooking up healthy, yummy foods, because I like food and I like eating yummy food.. and healthy food can indeed be yummy. This is one of the recipes I came across which I simply have to share! Instead of ice cream made from dairy milk and loaded with sugar, frozen bananas blended in a food processor creates a consistency and texture of ice cream with a light banana taste. Throw in raw, unsweetened cocoa powder or strawberries/fruit, and you have yourself a frozen ice cream-like treat which is just as yummy and much more healthy than ice cream! Yah! Four bananas makes a pint of banana-cream. It's cheaper and easier than regular ice cream. Win Win!
