    You're not supposed to re-freeze meat that has been previously frozen. Refreeze your bananas... they're fine.

    some people are just so rude it's downright disgusting !! don't comment if you're going to hate...no-one is forcing you to try the recipe so hush up.

    and never trie the recipe, might have to give it a go !!

    Tried the blended frozen bananas on their own with a little cinnamon, they were delicious.
    Tried it with Nutella, maybe I added too much Nutella, couldn't eat it - way too sweet.
    Tried it with strawberries (1/3 cup pieces per 1.5 bananas) and heavy cream (2 tbsp per 1.5 bananas), and it was awesome. :) Healthy (not a lot of cream, and you can reduce it if you want), great texture, very strawberry-y.

    Frozen bananas with a little non dairy milk and protein powder, with added vanilla or cinnamon and sweetener is also great.

    We've made a few variations of this and it always turns out great. The last one used PB2 and frozen cherries - my son calls it peanut butter and jelly freeze. Cocoa powder goes nicely with it too...or frozen blackberries, or almond butter, or a little bit of vanilla extract...loads of yummy possibilities. Good on you OP!

    I am always looking for alternatives! I was sucked into the Food Industry's salt, sugar and fat machine and every time I find replacements/alternatives that taste good to me I become even more healthy.

    Putting ice cream in quotes was a great way to describe it. I think people are trying to say they don't need alternatives because they just eat the real thing but in limited quantities, but we are all different and some of us need things like this.

    There is no excuse for them being rude, perhaps it's the sugar crash from the "real" ice cream that has put them in a bad mood ;)

    Thank you for the great idea!

    Awesome "ice cream" recipe! 2 frozen bananas + 2 tablespoons of Peanut butter & Company Dark chocolate dream peanut butter in a food processor. I completely blend the frozen bananas and then add the peanut butter and blend it for a split second so it makes a "fudge swirl". Then I put in back in the freezer for a little bit. Makes 2 servings. Tastes amazing!

    ... I wish I liked Banana's :(

    I switched from ice cream to Chobani Raspberry chocolate vanilla Yogurt.

    Isn't it nice to give your kids something good for them that feels so indulgent without any guilt? My 7 year old still gets the real thing but he loves the healthy alternative just as much.

    You guys don't have to be rude! She is just trying to spread the word about something yummy she made! Eat your ice cream, then!


    It's whatever! This is a DIET website. If people would rather eat real ice cream then so be it. Didn't hold a gun to anyone's head... Thanks though girl!

    You continue to do what you do. Those people who want to be nasty are just "Haters"! I am thinking this is a great dessert substitute and I THANK you for posting it.

    I used to make this for my daughter when she was smaller. Only I added a big slosh of homemade nut milk and some carob powder, a dash of honey, and blended the heck out of it. Can't remember the exact amounts, must dig out the recipe again, but it was bloody lovely.

    Ok, it isn't ice cream, but it's cold, smooth, sweet and healthy. What's not to like :)

    It does feel great especially when they would prefer this over store bought. We have an ice cream maker but with a recipe this simple and loved we don't even have to dirty it :-) my girls are 6 & 9 so it is definitely.KID APPROVED!!!

    Now you have me looking up Company Dark chocolate dream peanut butter. It sounds delicious. I'll have to grab it and try the recipe. Thanks.

    Seems like some folks have not learned how to play fair in the sandbox Lets remember not to be rude, if you don't like something then just let it go.
    The receipe sounds great, I tried it with cherries but not PB. Will try tomorrow.

    I think this sounds SUPER DELICIOUS!! What kind of food processor do you have?

    P.S. Haters are going to hate, it means you're doing something right. And for those of you who are being rude, put yourself in other people's shoes. Making changes aren't easy and what if that negative statement caused somebody to take a step back? if you don't like something there are better ways of say that or just don't say anything. We're here to motivate and help, not put down and reject.
