    My daughter made it for me for my Valentine’s Day dessert. Sweet thang! (She knows I am training hard right now and eating very clean) I am forever hooked!

    You can also substitute 1 Tablespoon of honey for the banana if you’d like.  But the banana does make it oh so much creamier. I try to keep overripe bananas in the freezer for smoothies and, now, for this little treat.

      Very good but so hard I couldn’t spoon it out that’s why I gave it a 3. I will not make it again. I wouldn’t call it ice cream but flavored ice cubes

      My blender did not work for this. So I guess it needs to be in an actual processor?

        I make this before dinner and stick it in the freezer for dessert. I always use frozen strawberries with the frozen banana. It turns out great and it’s easy and healthy!

      I have Multiple sclerosis and am trying to eat better. Could you use mango in place of strawberries? I love strawberries, too but just trying to have a variety. Thank you.
