Strawberry Banana "Ice Cream"

/

"I scream, you scream, we all scream for Emily's Real Food, All Natural, Easy-to-Make, Mother-Nature-Approved, Yummy Ice Cream!"

What's more refreshing on a hot, summer day than ICE CREAM?

Skip the mucus-forming dairy ice cream and the non-fat artificial-sugar-laden frozen yogurtand check out my all natural, nutrient-rich version. Tastes just as good (trust me), but without all the junk. You might even (gasp!) feel really good and ENERGIZED afterward!

Got kids?

Make this treat for them and they'll NEVER know it's good for their health. (It'll be our little secret.)  If you want to get fancy, insert mixture into popsicle molds and freeze until solid.
