Dude. I rule. Husband had a class tonight, so after a long day of cooking for my client, shuttling to and from appointments, I was feeding the kids solo. In between roasting the broccoli and messing up the millet, I made ICE CREAM.

Tropical ice cream

• 1 ripe banana
• 1 cup fresh or frozen pineapple chunks
• 4 medjool dates
• 1 can coconut cream or coconut milk (just shy of 2 cups)
• 1 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk (plus a little to equal 3 cups of liquid)
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1/2 tsp almond extract

Put all of the ingredients in a blender and puree until smooth. Pour the puree into your ice cream maker and process per manufacturer’s instructions.

It will be soft serve. It will be delicious.
