STRAWBERRY COCONUT ICE CREAM WITH STEVIA

STRAWBERRY COCONUT ICE CREAM WITH STEVIA image

Number Of Ingredients 4

12 oz (by weight, not volume) strawberries, fresh or frozen
2 14 oz cans coconut milk (do not use light varieties and watch out for preservatives in the ingredient list)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 or 4 packets NuNaturals NuStevia NoCarbs Blend

Steps:

In a blender, combine the strawberries, coconut milk, and vanilla extract and blend until very smooth. (It is not necessary to thaw frozen strawberries first as long as your blender is powerful enough to completely pulverize them. As a bonus, using frozen strawberries will help the ice cream to freeze faster.) Add three packets of stevia, blend, and taste. If you would like additional sweetness, toss in the fourth packet and mix. Pour the batter into your ice cream maker and follow the appliance's freezing instructions. Like most homemade ice creams, this one has the consistency of soft serve when finished and gets very hard after spending time in the freezer. In the latter case, leave it out on the counter for ten or fifteen minutes to soften before serving. Bon appetit!
