Mmmmm....brussel sprouts...one of my favorites. :)
I staged my own intervention today and swore to not continue buying the non-dairy pints of nice cream, as they're rather pricey and contain stuff I'd otherwise not choose to consume...and I lose all self-control when they're in the house...so....I whipped up my own frozen dessert blend instead of going to the store.
Chocolate almond milk, a hand full of baby kale, a drizzle of maple syrup, a couple nice ripe bananas, about a tsp. of vanilla extract, two-ish teaspoons chia seeds along with hulled hemp hearts, and a rounded tsp. cacao powder....all tossed in the blender on high, until smooth, then pour into your chosen vessel(s) and stick in the freezer for a couple hours.
It thickens up nicely with the chia seeds, the middle stays a little soft (but if left any longer in the freezer, especially overnight, would become soild...solid as a rock...lol), and the consistency once stirred well was just how I like my nice cream to be when I eat it. YUM! Non-dairy Hagen Daaz and Ben and Jerry ain't got nothin' on me and my addictive tendencies/plant-based creativity...except a warehouse full of some damn tasty products already prepared. lol Dammit.
