Summer has always been my favorite season. Perhaps because I was born in the summer, or because I grew up in a nearly-tropical environment that felt like summer most of the year. Whatever the reason, I love this season and I love all of the food we get to eat during these hot months.
I’m celebrating the summer solstice and this heat wave by having “Nice Cream” for breakfast. Nice cream is similar to ice cream because it’s frozen, creamy and delicious. But nice cream is kind to your body because it consists of only one ingredient! Bananas!
Last night, I chopped then froze two bananas. This morning, I put them in a food processor and processed until they congealed and were smooth and cream like ice cream. It really is that simple!


At this point, it’s ready to eat! But, if you want a scoop-able ice cream, put it in a closed container in the freezer for a couple of hours.
To make this nice cream smoothie bowl, I added a dollop of melted chocolate, raspberries, chia seeds and coconut. This definitely feels more like dessert than breakfast!
Ingredients:
2 bananas, previously chopped and frozen
To garnish: melted chocolate, raspberries, chia seeds and coconut
Method:
Put the bananas in a food processor and process until smooth and creamy.
Transfer the nice cream to a small bowl and garnish with a dollop of melted chocolate, raspberries, chia seeds and coconut.
Serve immediately.
