No cream and no sugar ice "cream"

I have blogged about a similar frozen dessert before, however this was so good and so healthy I had to tell you about it.

Ideally you'd have a vita mix blender (which I use 2-3 times daily, yes it was £400 but worth every penny). I think you could use a robust blender or a food processor instead.

pour a half a glass of coconut water into the blender (you could use ordinary water but the coconut water is interesting and health promoting. Throw in a handful of raw cashews or almonds and three pitted dates.

Blend on high until you have a sweetened nut milk. To this add two packs of frozen fruits (I used blendies from ocado - the ones with mango in but you could use fresh fruit or drained fruit in fruit juice and some ice cubes but the results would be more sorbet than ice cream. Blend until fruit is breaking down then add some soy vanilla yogurt (yes most of the brands do have sugar in them, aargh). To get the same creamy texture you could use coconut milk or coconut cream Let down with a splash more coconut water. Blend until smooth and resembling ice cream. Scoop out and serve or freeze for use later (although the texture goes very hard unless you churn/stir it every two hours).

Enjoy.
