Smooth Vanilla Nice Cream

Recipe:

1 C Cashews
2 tea Smooth Vanilla OPP
1 tea Vanilla Extract (optional)
1/4 C Agave
6 T Coconut Milk

How's THAT for, short, sweet, and to the point?

Yup!  The recipe upfront!

Now I should probably tell you a little bit more about this recipe and raw vegan vanilla ice cream adventure, right?  Well, here goes!  After soaking my cashews for an hour or two I put all of the ingredients you see above in my Vitamix and blended on high for 30 seconds.  I then froze the 'ice cream' and dished it up and into my lovely bamboo bowl and topped with Jem Organics Maqui Camu Super Berry Butter.  This was off the charts AMAZING!

I used Garden of Life's Smooth Vanilla Organic Plant Protein in this recipe, too!  The vanilla aroma upon opening the bag was pure HEAVEN!  It added a great deal of flavor and I think next time I might add more to it, too!  YUM!

    Ahhhhh!!! Coconut milk is very good for health! For years and years, people have been avoiding coconut milk as it was put in very bad light - unhealthy...in their attempt to promote their own oil, corn...or whatever. Now, everyone knows better - a must sought-after dairy substitute.

    Hi, Linda! You're here too, eh?
