Double Chocolate Banana Nice Cream

YOU GUYS.  I found thee tastiest "dessert" recipe EVER.  It is healthy, filling, super sweet, and just plain good.  Plus- it's so easy to make, and only takes a couple ingredients.  Are you ready?!?


So I originally got the recipe here but just modified it because I didn't want to make as much as they did and I didn't want to add any protein powder.  I need to improve my photography skills because mine in no way turned out to look like theirs:


BUT... I do know that it tasted AMAZING.

Don't judge, but here is my "work of art":


Sadly, my pictures turned out horrible.  I'll have you know- it tastes WAY better than it looks in these pictures.  Do try this recipe because it seriously is so yummy.

Ingredients:

Nice Cream
2.5 frozen bananas
1/8 cup-1/4 cup almond milk (depends on consistency you like)
1 tablespoon cocoa powder
1 teaspoon cinnamon
2 dates

Chocolate Hard Shell
1 tablespoon coconut oil, melted
1 tablespoon cocoa powder


Directions:

1. Add cocoa powder to a small bowl and pour the melted coconut oil over it, stir until blended and set to the side. 
2.  Put bananas and milk in your blender or food processor and blend until it reaches an ice-cream like consistency.  May take some time scraping down the edges of the blender but it will get there in a few minutes. You can eat it plain when it's at this step, but I wanted to add some beloved chocolate to my recipe. 
3.  Add in cocoa powder and cinnamon and blend. 
4.  Add in chopped dates and blend one final time.  I like my dates chopped up pretty well so I blended for another minute or so.  
5.  Transfer the nice cream to a bowl and drizzle the cocoa powder and coconut oil mixture over it.  The mixture should harden immediately and turn into a delicious, chocolatey, hard shell.  
6.  Enjoy!

I hope you enjoy this as much as I did. There are so many different mixtures you can make with Bananas to make ice-cream.  I cannot wait to try more... :)

Makes two servings. 

yum yum yum yum yum

That time when Derek and Katie visited Okinawa...

I think I should start off saying I have the coolest brother ever, and due to the fact that he’s marrying Katie, I guess she’s cool by association. JK. She’s great too. What makes them even cooler is that fact that they came and visited our little Japanese island we call home. (Yes, it’s OURS!) After spending a few days in Tokyo, they flew down south to Japan’s “Hawaii”.      I’ll have you know, we checked the forecast the day they were arriving and it said rain for the next 6 days (the length of time they were here for). With lots of prayers, I’m so thankful to say that the weather was amazing the whole time they were here! It was sunny and warm and perfect. Thank you Jesus!   Arthur and I met Derek and Katie at the airport, only to be greeted with what I would picture as the Japanese version of them. They walked off with facemasks on and if it weren’t for their height, I may have mistaken them for true Japanese! ;) (see video below) They were s...

Tiffany & Co Bridal Shower

So you've seen my Coral themed bridal shower (For those of you that haven't, you should definitely check it out here ) but as my duties as a maid of honor, I was given the opportunity and privilege to host my cousin's bridal shower.  When I asked her what she wanted as a theme- she knew instantly.  "Breakfast at Tiffany's".  I had no idea how many great ideas I would find on Pinterest under this category, but let me tell you- there was millions!  It was so fun.  We had it this last saturday at the same place I had mine at- so some of the things look pretty similar, just in a different color.  Everyone was asked to wear black which was adorable, and the bride wore a black and white dress so she stood out.  She looked so beautiful.
