Day 6- Blackberry-Orange Banana ICE CREAM-Raw Vegan


The family and I got to get away this weekend and spend a little time at the beach. There was a farm up the road that had u pick blackberries, so we packed the car and headed there. Mckenzie really had a great time grabbing the blackberries off the tree and eating more off the tree than in her basket!! When we got back with all the berries, I asked Mckenzie what she wanted to make with them and she said ICE CREAM. So that is what we did with them, except our reciepe is non dairy raw vegan and taste delicious!!!! The bananas give it a creamy feel and consistency while the orange adds a nice flavor. Enjoy. You won't be dissappointed:)
