If there is one thing my household loves it’s ice cream! When we started eating unprocessed foods ice cream was one item that disappeared from my freezer. If you take a stroll down the freezer isle in your local grocery store and read some of the ingredient lists one thing is clear… there are a ton of additives in ice cream that do not need to be there. I am not talking about tons of sugar because the sugar is the least of worry in this case. Ingredients I have seen on ice cream containers range from carrageenan to polysorbate 80 to propyl paraben. I am guessing you don’t have those ingredients in your house and neither do I. So why allow someone else to put them in your food?
Making your own ice cream is really simple. All you need is something to freeze the ice cream in and a few real ingredients. For my husband’s birthday this year I knew I wanted to make some fresh mint ice cream to go along with a dark chocolate tart. If you have never tasted fresh mint ice cream you are missing out big time! It is so much better then the store bought stuff! Here is the recipe I used for my husband’s birthday and it turned out fantastic.
