Lava Flow Ice ‘Non’ Cream

Ingredients

Main Ingredients:
2 Cups Frozen Strawberries (fresh, unsweetened)
1 Cup Frozen Pineapple (fresh, unsweetened)
1 Cup Coconut Milk (cold/first pressed, unsweetened)
1/4 Cup Agave Syrup (raw)
1 Tsp Vanilla
12 – 14 Cubes Ice cubes

1 Tbs Shredded Coconut (unsweetened)
1 Tsp Chocolate chips or Raw Chocolate (Cacao) Powder

Procedure

1. In the Vita-Mix, place the frozen strawberries, pineapple, vanilla, agave syrup and ice.   Start at Variable Speed 1 and quickly move to Speed 10, then ‘High’  Using your tamper, guide the ingredients into the blade and mix well.
2. As the Ice Cream blends, you will hear the motor change sound and begin to mix from the bottom up.  Remove the tamper and wait for the mixture to form 4 lumps at the top.  At this point, turn off the Vita-Mix and you’re done!
3. Serve as you would Ice Cream – in bowls or cones.  Top with your favorite toppings and Enjoy!
