I made a smoothie one day, and the next time I decided to make it, I had the awesome idea to throw it in the ice cream maker and make it into breakfast ice cream!! It’s delicious both ways and so packed with protein and raw yumminess but as ice cream—WOW. You have to eat this magic!
This tastes like a chocolate peanut butter milkshake. Just off the hook! BUT, if you want to create something the children will be amazed by, throw it in the ice cream machine according to the machine’s directions. Voila: ice cream for breakfast!! And it’s healthy!!
