No More Ice Cream!!??

I first heard about the Paleo diet from a few of my customers who were on the diet but still looking to take advantage of the "night off from cooking" that my meals to go business offers. So I started my research on Pinterest (of course) & experimented with some different recipes until I was able to add in a few pre-made Paleo dinners to my menu rotations. I had a HUGE response & have continued adding Paleo dishes & even figured out ways to "Paleoize" menu favorites! 
I get a lot of questions from customers about the health benefits of eating Paleo  & how it compares to other diets out there, so I've decided to go a step farther than experimenting with recipes. We are going Paleo!!! Of course the thought of a life without ice cream was quite sad for Tracy....
 & me too because seriously who doesn't love ice cream!!??? 

We decided to kick off our Paleoism officially we'd start with a will power boosting Strawberry Banana Hazelnut "ice cream." To treat yourself for hitting weight loss, fitness, or other goals is necessary in my opinion. This recipe allows you to give yourself a little treat without the guilt!!!

 Strawberry Banana Hazelnut Paleo Ice Cream

Ingredients
4 bananas peeled & frozen
1/4c of almond milk
1 cup of sliced strawberries
1 Tbs of honey
1/3c hazelnuts

In a food processor or blender blend the bananas & almond milk until smooth. Pour into a medium size bowl & stir in the strawberries, nuts, & honey. We poured our mixture into a plastic throw away container then placed it into the freezer for about 20-30 minutes. Then spoons up & enjoy!!
