I do not have this machine (yet) but I do have a food processor!! A very good friend on Facebook told me she does it this way and so I busted out 3 frozen bananas and 3 ripe strawberries (all organic) and popped them in my little 3-cup processor. It got stuck a few times so I added a little almond milk, about 3 tablespoons (from a carton) and just for fun, about a teaspoon of raw agave nectar. Spectacular doesn't even describe it! Here is a picture of it. I would say it made 3 child size servings. It is very creamy. I tried to get fancy by sticking mint leaves in there but the kids just threw that out. Oh well. For sure will be making this one again. You gotta try it!

Ice Cream For Breakfast!!
Good morning! How would you like a big bowl of ice cream for breakfast on a beautiful summer morning? Well, I just about hear this request every morning from the Jellybean and little Peanut. And the answer is always ..."Not Today Sweetie". It sucks because I know I would love some too but we have all been taught that ice cream is a special treat after you finish your 'real food' so on I go preparing the kids nutritious breakfast. Well, then along comes a commercial for a new kitchen appliance that makes soft serve ice cream out of frozen bananas and what ever other fruits and flavors you want to add. The kids see this and it's all over!!! So, should I get this machine? Am I even allowed to say the name of it without permission? I'll have to find out. But here is what I say now... YES!!! LET'S ALL HAVE ICE CREAM FOR BREAKFAST!!!
