1 Ingredient Banana Ice Cream

August 18, 2015 By Jenna Shaughnessy 1 Comment

1 Ingredient Banana Ice Cream

I’ve recently cut out all refined sugar from my diet. Once I set my mind to it (and saw the lbs start to drop off!) it was easier than I had initially thought. But, it’s summer, and I would still like to enjoy an ice cream every so often. 
I’ve seen this recipe for 1 ingredient banana ice cream on Pinterest for a while now and have been dying to give it a try. I wasn’t sure that it would really taste like ice cream but BOY was I wrong! It’s also a great way to use up those over-ripe bananas…there’s only so much banana bread you can eat!

This couldn’t be easier to make: You want to use 4 or 5  over-ripe bananas (the browner they are, the sweeter the ice cream will  be!).

Peel them and slice. Place the slices on a plate and freeze overnight. Then, all you have to do is blend them up in  food processor/blender until thick and creamy!

Now, in the spirit of being sharing, I’m going to let you know that I froze my bananas whole with the skins still ON. Don’t do this, they are impossible to peel once they are frozen!! You could peel first, then freeze but I reckon slicing them up first would make the process a whole lot easier.

If you want to serve it right out of the blender, expect a “soft-serve” consistency. To make it a bit more solid, pop in a freezer-proof container and chill for at least 2 hours.

Who knew that pureed frozen bananas were so thick and creamy!? Honestly, if you love ice cream and bananas then you will adore this. It’s Paleo friendly, dairy free, (added) sugar free and a great guilt-free treat for both kids and adults alike. Feeling adventurous? Once you’ve mastered this version, don’t be afraid to experiment! I’m going to add almond butter to my next batch 🙂

Peanut Butter Nutella Rice Krispie Treats

May 29, 2015 By Shannah Coe 9 Comments

I am thrilled to partner with Orajelâ„¢ Kids to share my thoughts on childhood tooth health. As always, while this post was sponsored, all thoughts and opinions are my own.

I have a GIANT sweet tooth. Like I think my whole mouth is nothing but sweet teeth because I crave sweets all the time. My children, especially my daughter, definitely inherited my loves of sweets. Now that she also loves to be in the kitchen, we do make a lot of treats together. Right now, her favorite is rice krispie treats but, of course, I had to change them up a bit so we made peanut butter nutella rice krispie treats in addition the regular ones.

So, it is Monday. Are you struggling like I am? We had a gorgeous weekend here in VA and were fortunate to spend most of it outdoors. Weekends like that make going back to the grind of the office even harder. Maybe this peanut butter nutella donut sandwich will ease the pain…

Slow Cooker Chocolate Lava Cake

April 14, 2015 By Allyson Zea 25 Comments

This seemed like a major shortcut! I decided to try out a Slow Cooker Chocolate cake, and made it lava style! That’s how Slow Cooker Chocolate Lava Cake was born! This crockpot lava cake was deliciously ooey gooey chocolatey perfection! Serve with a scoop of ice cream for a mouth watering dessert!

Hey Just Us Four Readers! I hope y’all are ready for another delicious recipe, because this one is a doozy! When I first read that you could make cake in a slow cooker, I really didn’t believe it…I’m not sure why, but probably because I am terrible at real baking, and this seemed like a major shortcut. Slow Cooker Chocolate Lava Cake - a moist delicious cake oozing with hot chocolate sauce. This slow cooker recipe is not only easy, but probably the best thing you'll ever make in a slow cooker.

Three Ingredient Lemon Cake Batter Dip

April 13, 2015 By Shannah Coe 11 Comments

Any time a recipe starts with the phrase “three ingredients”, it makes my heart go pitter patter. I love cooking but I don’t always have the time to make the recipes I want because of the lengthy list of ingredients. Having an arsenal of recipes that don’t require many ingredients, like three ingredient TWIX dip, carrot cake dip or this lemon cake batter dip, makes it easy for me to still make something even when I am short on time.

Dark Chocolate Sea Salt Caramelitas

April 2, 2015 By Shannah Coe 37 Comments

So, you guys see me posting all the Paleo recipes and I’m sure you are sitting there thinking “well, she has gone full on health nut on us.” While I do try to stick to Paleo as much as possible, I admit that I still enjoy {love, crave, desire…} sweets on a regular basis. I just went from having them almost every day to saving them for more of a special treat. Now, these dark chocolate sea salt caramelitas…I could eat these every day. I’d need an entirely new wardrobe filled with elastic waist pants but they are so good that I would never tire of them.

Carrot Cake Dip

March 26, 2015 By Shannah Coe 5 Comments

I can’t get over the fact that Easter is just over a week away! I am hosting Easter brunch at our house this year so I definitely need to get my butt in gear when it comes to planning a menu. At least I know I have a good resource for Easter recipes to turn to but I am still thinking of different dessert options. I don’t love the time it takes to bake so I am leaning towards something much easier like this three ingredient carrot cake dip.
