Getting in shape

Aaron and I finished our second annual New Year's food detox. He made some pretty yummy juices each morning. This one looks scary but his green monster juice is tasty.

To wrap up detox we caved and got a treadmill. I've had a few people mention how theirs became a clothes hanger or a kitty litter box platform. I'm determined to not let that happen. Despite the lazy kitty lounging on it.

one ingredient faux ice cream from frozen bananas

Aaron and I are doing our New Years 4 day food detox program again. That means 4 days with no sugar, wheat, dairy, eggs, caffine, or processed foods. When it comes to having a sweet tooth that doesn't leave a lot of choices. Luckily I had heard about one ingredient ice cream - frozen banana ice cream!

It really is one ingredient and so easy. You just peel and chop up some bananas and let them in the freezer a few hours.

Then you puree them in a food processor.

I was so surprised to see they pureed into a smooth, creamy concoction a lot like frozen custard.

I made another batch and threw in some frozen strawberries.

Faux strawberry ice cream!

When detox is over I am going to try adding honey and peanut butter!
