Healthy IceCream?


Ok yea I know I just said if you have to "healthy it up" whats the point?

This is less about diet and more about treatment. I had a recipe for Banana~Blueberry smoothie that I froze a bunch of bananas for. But smoothies went SOOOO wrong.

But I made something similar and it turned out more like icecream.

It is great for Breakfast since its "smoothie" type or as a snack in the evening. Chock full of antioxidants and fruit who gets enough fruit? But the big plus? It feels good on my sore throat.

My throat is sore from the radiation.

here is the recipe....

1/2 cup of plain yogurt
1 cup of frozen blueberries
1 cup of frozen bananas
maybe some milk

I put all the frozen stuff in the food processor with the chopping blade along with the yogurt. And I start to blend it all. If its too thick, I splash in a bit of milk. If its too thin I just keep adding more of one or the other fruit.

OK its not a direct science. The leftovers I put into the freezer in a freezer box, and I pop it in the microwave just to soften it a bit (it freezes super hard)

Feels good on my sore throat, wont ruin my diet, and I like it. But I dont like it so much that i will over eat on it. Too much in a serving and I burn out on it
