Healthy Ice Cream?

So...we've all had those days where we really want something sweet after dinner but don't want to completely ruin our diets?  I think I found the answer!

And all you need is a blender, frozen bananas, peanut butter, dash of almond milk, and protein power (optional).  I added a few other ingredients but feel free to make it your own...

Frozen Banana Peanut Butter Ice Cream

Ingredients
1 large frozen banana
1 scoop of protein powder (I use Perfect Fit)
2 Tbsp PB2* (or 2 Tbsp of organic peanut butter)
1/4 cup Almond Milk
1 tsp Vanilla Extract

Blend all ingredients together.  You may need to add more or less almond milk, depending on how thick you would like your ice cream.  Place in freezer for 5-30 minutes.  Top off with a few dark chocolate or peanut butter chips!

Enjoy!

*PB2 is great in smoothies and ice cream....and less calories!  (about 45 calories per serving, compared to 150 plus for most peanut butters!)
