Creamy Banana Ice

Ingredients:

2 bananas, peeled, sliced, and frozen for several hours
1 Tablespoon milk

 

Directions:

1. Place the frozen bananas into a food processor or blender.

2. Add the milk.

3. Puree the bananas and milk until they are creamy.

4. Spoon the mixture into bowls and serve right away.

 

Makes two servings.

 

Instead of bananas you could freeze mangoes, strawberries, blueberries, pineapple, or whatever fruit you like. Just cut larger fruit into small pieces first.
Then place the fruit in a single layer on a dish that is freezer-safe. You could try mixing several kinds of fruit together. (Approximately 1 cup of fruit = 1 serving.)
Or to make this recipe into a yummy fruit-drink, add more milk. You can make it as thin or as thick as you want.
