Welcome!

I started this page as a way to share good and healthy recipes with my family and friends (so many had asked for my Quinoa and Kale Salad recipe!) and to encourage more of us to get motivated to make a change for the better. There are only a few of us posting so far, but please feel free to invite anyone who you'd think would like to share recipes with us, just e- mail or facebook message me their e-mail address and I will add them as an administrator.

Avocado Ice Cream

I found a recipe online for this ice cream but some of the ingredients weren't quite up to snuff for my liking so I modified it (I think it still counts as an original creation though, right?)

3 ripe avocados
2 – 3 T lime juice (depending on the strength of the lime)
1/2 teaspoon stevia, powdered or liquid
2 C MimicCream
1 C almond or coconut milk
2 T tequila (optional) make sure you use organic tequila... JK

Puree all and use ice cream maker to freeze according to your maker's directions. **OR** Cameron (my 12 year old) told me that he was taught in school to make ice-cream using two zip lock bags, some ice, and some salt (he said regular salt was fine), instead of an ice cream maker (let's face it, I don't know anyone who owns an ice cream maker except my sweet crazy niece Brit). I haven't tried it yet - BUT, he said it worked... I will get back to you after he shows me how to make this recipe using what he learned in school. Tick Tock...
