Ice Cream: Made With Bananas Only

Step by Step Instructions for One Ingredient Ice Cream

Creamy ice cream from just one ingredient.

Freeze the banana pieces for at least 

an hour or two.

Blend on high. Initially they will look

crumbly and piecemeal.

The mixture will probably get stuck a 

lot. Keep scraping down the bowl.

                                                                                                         

Suddenly, as you keep blending, you
will see a change. The bananas turn
creamy! Now is the time to add a
scoop of peanut butter or anything
else you care to mix in.

The ice cream will be the texture if soft
serve, but if you freeze again in an airtight
container, it will get harder and more
like ice cream.

How to make 1-ingredient ice cream…

1.Peel your bananas first.
2.Cut them into small pieces.
3.Freeze for just 1-2 hours on a plate.
4.Blend, blend, blend – scraping down the bowl when they stick.
Enjoy the magic moment when they turn into ice cream!

Have fun making your banana ice cream!!! Enjoy.

Potato Veggie Burgers

 

I wanted to start making my own veggie burgers, instead of buying them in stores. That way I know exactly what’s in them. I found this recipe and wanted to try it out. It came out really good and taste great.

 

 

Ingredients:

• 1 cup canned black beans
• 1 carrot, grated
• 1/2 onion, diced
• 3 potatoes, grated
• 4 scallions, chopped
• 1 cup corn
• salt and pepper to taste
• oil for frying

Preparation:

Mash the beans with a fork or a potato masher. Add the remaining ingredients, except the oil and mix until well combined. Shape the mixture into patties. Heat about two tablespoons of olive oil and cook each patty until the veggie burgers are done, about 3 minutes on each side.

Mashed Potato Cakes

My mom and I love trying out new recipes. For the very first time she cooked potato cakes for breakfast today and it was delicioso. 

Potato pancakes are good for us for several reasons. They don't have a lot of additives and other high sodium seasonings, unless you add it in. They are high in potassium which is great for people with high blood pressure, especially if you take medication that has a water pill in it. You don't have to add syrup on them unless you want to, because they taste great without it. When you make the mashed potatoes for the pancakes, all you need are boiled potatoes, a little milk and a little unsalted butter and some sodium free seasonings like onion or garlic powder.

Here is the recipe:  Mashed Potato Cakes

Total Time:

25 min

Prep

5 min

Cook

20 min

Yield:

4 servings

Level:

Easy

Ingredients

• 2 cups chilled mashed potatoes
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, for dredging
• 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
• 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Directions

Divide the mashed potatoes into 8 equal portions. Use your hands to form 1/2-inch thick patties.

Heat the oil with the butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until almost smoking. Mix the flour with the salt and pepper in a pie plate. Coat the potato patties in the flour mixture. Add the potato cakes to the pan and reduce the heat to medium-low. Cook until they have formed a golden crust, 15 to 20 minutes. (Peek underneath using a spatula before turning.) Turn and cook the other side until golden brown, about 15 minutes. Season with additional salt and pepper and serve hot.

Note: Make mashed potatoes from the "innards" of the Garlic Roasted Potato Skins by mashing them with 1/2 cup hot milk and 4 tablespoons of softened, unsalted butter. Don't forget to season them with salt and pepper! Chill the mashed potatoes overnight for the best results.

Make sure you let me know how you like it!!! Enjoy.
