Nice cream. Nana ice cream. Banana ice cream. Instant ice cream... One of my absolute favorite treats in the world. I don't think a day passes when I don't have nice cream in some form. Even when it's -35C outside, I still manage to sneak it in -- even if it means snuggling with a bowl of ice cream by the fire place. So I decided to share some of the variations I enjoy it in here as well, starting with this super simple strawberry banana ice cream. Why am I loving nice cream so much? Well it's super easy for starters. It makes a wonderful fruity breakfast bowl, a vehicle for all kinds of fun flavor experiments and improvising... It's light & raw, and so requires no waiting over a stove (I like porridge too, but nice cream typically wins for that reason). And it's like having dessert for breakfast (or a snack), only entirely wholesomely. And really, it's just plain delicious. Adn who would complain about an easy peasy instant strawberry banana ice cream - Vitamix edition, right? ;) P.S. If this recipe looks familiar to you (and if you've been following my IG page since its wee beginnings), you're not mistaken. I've decided to share some old favorite quick recipes from Instagram on here -- it seemed sad to just let them be buried away waaaaay back in the feed where no-one will ever find them or make them. So bringing these a few of these little gems back to the forefront.

Strawberry Banana Ice Cream. You guys!! Happy First Day of SUMMER! I just got back from vacation and I feel so rejuvenated! It feels good!! I can’t believe what one week of relaxing did for my body, soul and spirit. So if you need to destress, take my advice and go hang out by a pool for a week! So about this “ice cream.” I know, it is not your traditional custard type of ice cream. And it is something I just happened upon last summer. Yes I’ve been holding out on you since last summer! Anyways, I was making a smoothie one day and threw in some bananas and frozen raspberries. It was so thick that I thought, wow this could be ice cream. I also saw how last year the big rage was making ice cream from just frozen bananas. And honestly I was kind of obsessed with that as well. Now that it is all hot and humid again I thought it was time to start freezing bananas again. But what is kind of great about this, is that you can make it all year round! No need to wait for summer. There are a few simple steps to making this:
