Hi,

I am new to the raw way of life. I am suffering from weight gain due to some stressful events in my life and my love for Chocolate ice cream to comfort me. With this way of life, I an looking forward to getting healthy, toned and trim. I want my eyes to sparkle again with life and my skin to glow. I knew that there was better way than what I was doing to my body/mind and soul by stuffing myself with dead foods.

Wonderful wonderful supportive board, I am so happy that I found you!!!!

welcome!!! glad to have you ,and I know what you mean about the choc. ice cream!!!




have you tried the RAW butter pecan ice cream -its GREAT for those times you just need some ice cream ~plus it is easier to not binge on it b/c you make it from pre-portioned bannanas!!! heres the recipe!

"ok 1st of all this is not my recipie ... but i tried it an wow ... i had to make a double batch because it was so good and there was no way i was gonna share with anyone.. maybe i'll share tomorrow ,,, then again maybe not hehe


ok here it is ** this is from melissa's post
Butter pecan ice cream...A couple of frozen bananas, a generous dollop of raw honey, vanilla extract, a big pinch of salt. Toss it all in the food processor and process until smooth (add a tiny bit of warm water to help blend if needed.) Then add the pecans and pulse chop them, not finely ground if you like chunks in your ice cream like I do. That's it. It's divine.


it's more than divine.. lets face it. It orgasmic lol panty melting to be sure. " ~coffee squirell
