This is smooth, creamy, cold and delicious! There are lots of variations, the one pictured is blueberry. Try it with strawberries, cherries, peaches or other fruits that you like as well. CAUTION: This recipe uses a high powered blender (like a Vitamix) or high powered food processor so it doesn't strain when you put in the frozen fruit. If you don’t have one, use more liquid and make it more like a milk shake.
These are very easy to make since they are done almost totally in a blender. They are a favorite in our house.
I first tasted these at a local recipe swap and loved them right away. This is my version with some ingredient changes and simplified instructions.
I love the mix of all the fruits and nuts in these. They make a great dessert or snack. Just don’t tell anyone they are healthy!
The combination of apples in a creamy sauce makes this dessert extra special. It serves 8 so there is plenty for a crowd. It also freezes well.
This has quickly become a family favorite. I often have a batch of these in the freezer, ready to go.
These crackers are delicious, gluten free, salt free crackers that make a great snack on their own or used with a dip.
Don’t tell anyone how healthy this blended mixture of black beans, banana, apple and black cherries is! If you are a chocolate lover, you can even add some cocoa.
This combination of oats, bananas and apple is cooked in the microwave which makes it a quick dish to prepare. It’s quick but also good enough to serve to company.
This is thick enough to serve in a bowl and eat with a spoon. The cinnamon and vanilla gives it an apple pie flavor.
This is a delicious snack or dessert. It comes together quickly and freezes well.
