Not gonna lie. I discovered this genius through Pinterest. In fact, it may be my single favorite food discovery of 2012. I love ice cream! The only problem is, the scale doesn’t. I try not to be too scale conscious, and more health conscious, but this is the best of both worlds!

If you haven’t heard of this phenomena yet, allow me to introduce you to this incredible creamy, vegan, single-ingredient ice cream: Frozen bananas.

Oh, and if you haven’t heard of Brunch Week yet, check out this post for more explanation. Read more...

After reading a few blogs on the differences in the process of making it with & without a machine, it just saves a lot of labor time with it.
