Munchie Monday: Quick and Easy Ice Cream for Breakfast!!!

Today we had ice cream for breakfast!  And I feel totally virtuous about it...

This had no added sugar.  No added fat.  No added salt.  This had a LOT of flavor.

Several years ago we were at Britta's house for Book Group.  When it came time for refreshments after a great discussion,  she got out some frozen fruit plus a couple other things that I have since forgotten.  Forty-five seconds later she had some fabulous ice cream.

Well, we did the same thing today with a little variation.

Quick and Easy Ice Cream

2 cups frozen mixed berries and pineapple from Costco
1 cup fresh strawberries.
1 cup milk

Put the milk in the jar of a high-speed blender.  Add the strawberries then add the frozen fruit on top.  Blend it until ice cream.  It will take less than a minute.  You may need to use the tamper to get all the fruit into the blades.  You also may need to add more milk, a tablespoon at a time.

To make this creamier,  instead of the fresh strawberries add a couple of frozen bananas that you chunked up before freezing.

This was so quick and easy and so delicious...and it was all fruit.  If I had had some almond milk open, I would have used that instead of the dairy milk.  It is hard to believe how delicious and refreshing an ice cream with no additives can be.  Yummy!

Try it!  You will like it.  It may be the thing that gets you saving for a high-speed blender.  That first ice cream was what got me really thinking about making the high speed blender a reality in our family.  It only took about four years to get there after Britta's ice cream...
