Before I get to the good (treat without a cheat) part…I was lazy tonight. No cooking whatsoever, not even any reheating! Pulled a (leftover) grilled chicken breast out of the fridge and cut it up. Mixed it with organic baby arugula and organic baby spinach and topped it off with balsamic vinaigrette (1/4 cup balsamic vinegar, 2 cloves minced garlic, 1 tsp. kosher salt, 1/2 tsp. pepper, 1 tbl. Westbrae Naturals dijon style mustard, 3/4 cup olive oil). Voila dinner.
Then I got more motivation and decided to make a little frozen treat. Tastes like sorbet, minus all the crap in the sorbet from the frozen food section of the grocery store. And simple too!
Ingredients:
2 1/2 cups frozen fruit of your choice – one kind or a mixture (for example choose between frozen strawberry, raspberry, blackberry, blueberry, banana, mango, etc)
1/4 cup + 1 tbl. full fat coconut milk
Toasted almond slices
Toasted unsweetened flaked coconut
Method:
Place fruit in your food processor and add coconut milk. Now preheat your oven to 350°F and spread raw sliced almonds and/or unsweetened flaked coconut on a baking sheet. Bake almonds and/or coconut at 350°F for 5 minutes. Now process your fruit in your food processor until smooth. Scoop blended fruit into a dish and top with toasted almonds and/or coconut. Yum! Makes ~6 scoops.
