Dairy-Free Pistachio Ice Cream -GIVEAWAY!
A no-guilt, Dairy-Free Pistachio Ice Cream is made with only 5 ingredients and has the creamy consistency and an amazing pistachio flavor that is truly awesome! The blend of creamy coconut milk with fresh avocado, baby spinach and pistachios gives this vegan ice cream a creamy decadent flavor and richness that is unbelievable!
Imagine eating a healthy version of ice cream that actually contains fresh avocado and spinach in it.
I never heard anything like this before. Have you?
Well I am so excited about this one, because as a parent, I am thinking, wow this is a great idea for my kids and even my grandkids to eat some veggies by disguising them as ice cream!
Fantastic, right?
*KEEP IN MIND – this is NOT a recipe for those who are allergic to nuts.
I was so inspired the other day when I was strolling through Whole Foods and noticed a promotion was going for selling Vitamix machines.
Even though I don’t own one yet, my sister Liz does and swears by it! Which is why I had to share this recipe with you!
This recipe for creamy ice cream is one you have to serve immediately, more like a soft-serve ice cream; which is really great because you can keep making batches of it and make as much as you want!
How cool is that?
Plsu, I found out that the month ofย July happens to be “National Ice Cream Month” …and so many wonderful bloggers have been engaged withย giveaways,ย so weย like do one too!ย
This is our first giveaway, Iย know its a small one, but its a start!ย ย

BTW, you guys should get on Instagram. That is my favorite of form social media and it's so interactive. Let me know if you set up an account. It's the new facebook and twitter combined! I'm Marin mama cooks on there. xoxo, Jackie
Hey Jackie, thanks..that is so sweet of you! I need to pin down one of my teens to help me with the Instagram thing. Hopefully soon! I am positive next year will pop up some other jigamaru media thing to keep us even more busy. right? xxoo Anna
Wow, this ice cream looks very interesting, and I love the fact that it can be made and eaten right away. it's like a smoothie in that sense. I made a batch of chocolate ice cream with Oreos yesterday that we had to freeze for 3-4 hours and it was so hard waiting. My kids would prefer an ice cream that they could dig their paws into right away.
I already follow you gals via email because that is where I follow all my favorite blogs. I like the email route! I'm going to like you on facebook as well. I'm never on twitter and actually don't get really get twitter. To me it's like texting to strangers and who knows who sees your tweet when there are 12,000 other tweets going on at the same time. It's mind boggling.
BTW, I LOVE my vitamix and I use it for everything and at least once or twice a day. It's the best for pureeing soups!
Ok, my favorite ice cream hands down is chocolate.
I haven't eaten nearly enough ice cream this month. I like you on Facebook.
I am a HUGE pistachio lover and I adore how easy/healthy this is! Totally getting it into my life.
I follow you on Twitter, too.

Oh, I have to try this! My favorite is Rocky Road; I know how boring…..
Delicious and healthy ice cream? You bet I'll try it! I have many favorite ice cream flavors, but if I had to choose only one, it would be vanilla. It's neutral and almost anything can be mixed into it.
