I used to love Howard Johnson's peppermint ice cream. This is just as good. I make it for lunch almost daily.

2.5 frozen banana's
1 heaping T of carob powder
greens - kale, parsley, spinach ( I don't like what chard does in a smoothie, but that's me)
Some drops of stevia (I like sweet)
Maybe 6 drops peppermint extract
Maybe 1/4 or 1/3 cup water to help the blender

Whirrrr. It's exactly peppermint ice cream. What simpler. I'm going to try and make it into fruit leather for the road this week. That should be interesting.

With love,

Biscuit Grinch

Whoo hoo! This may very well be the key to getting my kids to enjoy a green smoothie. Heck, if it tastes like chocolate chip mint what kid wouldnt want it???
