Who says you can't have treats while you're cleansing?? It's mid-week, I cleansed yesterday, crashed at 8:00pm after a long day at work, but I still had time for a little treat: Chocolate Banana Softserve with Strawberries. What?! That's not part of the cleanse?! Oh, but yes, yes it is. No dairy or sugar added .. inspired by Maya and Eliza and their creative blended frozen fruit desserts. The texture and taste were right on. I don't need to say more ... just MAKE IT!!
Chocolate Banana Softserve with Strawberries
inspired by nourishing mornings and pistachios and rainbows
1 frozen banana
1 teaspoon of cocoa powder (unsweetened)
1/4 cup of soy or almond milk (plus more if needed)
a handful of strawberries, sliced
Put everything in a blender or mini chopper and whiz until smooth and creamy. You might have to add more liquid depending on the size of your banana. Serve with fresh sliced strawberries and don't you DARE feel guilty about eating THIS dessert!
**I'm going to try it tonight with frozen banana, frozen blueberries and almond extract.
Aha! Another use for the frozen banana community in my freezer! This sounds yummy!
ReplyDeleteoh, yeah... this looks awesome. I was getting a bit sick of quinoa. :)
ReplyDeleteMonkia, this is a perfect use for all your frozen bananas! Make it!
ReplyDeleteMia, yup, although quinoa = cool, there can be too much. This is super easy to make and so delicious!
