School is finally over! I'm now a senior in high school and I'm starting what is supposed to be one of the most fun times in my life (we will see about that). To me, school is very stressful and causes lots of anxiety, but I have a better feeling about this year. As most of you know, my blog is a combo of my life and how I enjoy it with healthy eating, travel, etc. My summer read is a book called Body and Soul: A Girl's Guide to a Fun, Fit, and Fabulous Life. The author is Bethany Hamilton who is the surfer who lost her arm in a shark attack when she was thirteen. Her story inspired the movie Soul Surfer and since then she became a professional surfer, newly married, and wrote her new book. This book combines healthy eating, workouts, and devotionals all in one book! Bethany lives in Hawaii and many of the recipes in her book are very Hawaiian (which I LOVE!). One of her dessert recipes in Banana Ice Cream! I have made it myself and its open for tweaking so you can make it fit your personal taste.
Ingredients:
-Vanilla Almond Milk
- Frozen Banana
- Almonds (optional)
- Coconut Shavings (optional)
How to Make:
Puree Frozen, Chopped Banana in a Blender while slowly adding almond milk. DO NOT ADD ICE!
Top with almonds or coconut shavings in desired. You can add any kind of frozen fruit you want!
See how easy that is!? and its really good! I've thought about topping it with Dark Chocolate!
I'll see you around this Summer as I show you more fun ways to be healthy!
