Welcome to the first post in my Summer Staples series. Your guide to 2025 essentials to stay cool, full, and glowing all summer long.
First up? My favorite “healthy” snack to satisfy that summer time sweet tooth.
Banana Ice Cream (aka Nice Cream)
This sweet treat is dairy-free, takes less than 5 minutes to make, and only takes 4 ingredients you probably already have at home.
Ingredients:
- 1 frozen banana
- 2 teaspoons Sugar in the Raw
- A drizzle of local honey
- 1/3 cup Vanilla MALK (or your favorite plant-based milk + Vanilla Extract)
How To:
Toss everything into a blender with some ice and blend until smooth. Enjoy immediately as soft-serve, or freeze for 30–60 minutes for a more icy texture.
Why I love it:
- No preservatives or weird additives—just clean, real ingredients
- Dairy-free and lactose-free
- Craving curving and refreshing
- Perfect for a poolside snack or late-night dessert
Tip: Top with berries, cinnamon, coconut flakes, or a spoonful of nut butter to take it to the next level.
One down, many more to come. Stick around—your new summer staple might be next. 🌞
