Avocado Ice Cream

Avocado Ice Cream

If the idea of avocado ice cream sounds strange to you, that’s because you’ve never tried it.

If you have tried it, then you know that it’s a delicious treat! Creamy, delicious homemade ice cream – ok, nice cream – can be ready to eat after just a few minutes of prep.

If you’re impatient, you can eat it straight out of the blender (we won’t tell), or let it firm up in the freezer for a few hours before scooping into a bowl.

Our luscious avocado ice cream gets extra green color – and antioxidants – from a secret ingredient: spinach! The added greens are flavorless (your kids will thank you for this) so no one has to know they’re eating healthy ice cream.
