Summertime calls for
ice cream but ice cream isn’t available to everyone’s diet. It’s also not always the healthiest or lowest
calorie dessert choice, but who wants to give up ice cream!?! I came across
this amazing replacement for chocolate ice cream. It doesn’t look like
chocolate ice cream but if you close your eyes and take a spoonful it will
taste chocolaty and delicious! And the best part…it’s super healthy and full of
lots of nutrients!
This is a great treat
to freeze and have on hand whenever you get that craving for chocolate ice
cream. Instead of going for the Ben & Jerry’s, you can whip out your
chocolate green smoothie!
Ingredients:
- Two handfuls fresh spinach
- Almond milk – about ½ cup (less will make it thicker, more will make it thinner)
- One banana
- ½ avocado
- 3 scoops of chocolate protein powder (I use Vega One - All in One Protein Powder)
- Handful of blueberries
- Drizzle of honey (optional)
Place all ingredients
in a blender or Nutribullet and blend to desired consistency. To make it the
consistency of ice cream, freeze for at least an hour before serving. You could
also add a handful of ice if you don’t have time to let it freeze before eating
it. Enjoy!
