Ice Cream Divine
FOOD AS MEDICINE: Avocados have a healthy fat profile that is not only important for optimal brain function but is part of the structure of every cell in our bodies and has demonstrated through research to protect against prostate and breast cancer as well as heart disease. Did you know that avocados are higher in potassium than bananas! In addition, they offer a great source of vitamin E, K, B6, and folate.
Ingredients
- • 250ml (1 cup) coconut milk

Instructions
Sometimes you will be surprised that you already have the ingredients listed in a yummy, healthy product that you buy from the supermarket. My girl Emma loves anything with lemon and recently chose a lemon ice cream when she was out shopping with me. It was divine and when I looked at the ingredients, we had it all. No time was wasted and we whisked it up in a jiffy. To our delight, it was as divine as the original…even a little better cause it was homemade.
Blend all the ingredients on high for at least two minutes - till well mixed and thick. Put in freezer-safe, ice lolly or ice cube containers and freeze. Enjoy a very healthy, satiating ice cream
