Vegan Ice Cream!!!

If you know me you know that I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE ice cream!!! It is heaven in a bowl.
The creamy, cold, sweet, flavor filled joy is one that I have a hard time to stay away from. The solution? Frozen mango or frozen banana nondairy milk and flavoring with a little bit of pixie dust. (Stevia)

Here is how you make this delectable dessert.

In a food processor add frozen Mango, or Frozen Bananas. With just a little bit of a vegan Milk.
Coconut Milk, Cashew Milk, Almond Milk. It really doesn't matter what kind. Process it until SMOOTH!!!!! After it is smooth add 1/4-1 tsp Cinnamon I like cinnamon so I add a lot to mine. and Vanilla,
If you want to you can get the liquid Flavored Stevia This one is Caramel Mmmmmm
I also LOVE adding cocoa powder to mine. Then if you want take half of it and add berries and swirl them. Very pretty.
I just topped mine with raw cashews and Chocolate Nibs. Mmmm
It melts just like ice cream and it is sweet and creamy and OH SO GOOD!!!!
  Hope you like this as much as I do.
Much Love, Emily

More posts!!!! and Enchilada Soup

    Now that school is back in session and this year I am not home schooling, I am going to try and post once a week. We will see how I do. :0) I have been taking a lot of pictures of my food and so I just need to play catch up. For now I will post what we are having tonight. This recipe comes from my dear sister who is following my lead and leaning the vegan way of life. We are going to call this Enchilada Soup it is really good and not spicy for those of you who have little kids who don't like spice. :0)


                                               This really is very good so get excited!!!

Enchilada Soup

Boil 2 Sweet Potatoes
Boil 1 Cup of Black Forbidden Rice.
    (This adds color and texture. If you cant get it just use brown rice.)
Chop and saute Onion and Bell Peppers.
    (Use other Peppers if you want it spicy)
Open 2- 15oz cans of  Black Beans and 1-15oz can of Pinto Drain and rinse
Open 1-28oz can Medium Green Chili Enchilada Sauce

I was cooking all of these on medium to medium high so that I could multi task without burning. ;0)
  When Potatoes are done place them in the blender with its water and blend till smooth
Place that in a LARGE cooking pot and add your Onions, Peppers, Beans, Enchilada Sauce. Mix in
Rinse your Forbidden rice well so that the soup doesn't turn an unpleasant color. Add that also to your soup.
  I added blended Avocado to add creaminess, and I also added chopped Cilantro Add these at the end of it all so that the flavors are fresh. :0)
 
 I hope that you make this it is really very good and healthy. :0)
Much Love, Emily
