Summer is officially here- yeah! and this month’s Lazy Susan round is all about frozen deserts.

Last year I really got into sorbets since they are light, fresh, fruity and still totally indulgent. This one is for the adults only, something my kids were not thrilled with- ha ha. But sometimes, you do need an adult only desert and this one goes perfectly with our frequent summer taco night. Yup, last night’s dinner was sweet potato and black bean tacos followed by strawberry margarita sorbet and I went to bed one happy mamma.
I hope this will make it into your summer recipe round as well, and remember, this one is ONLY for the grown ups! you deserve it!

 

Ingredients:

1 cup warm water
1/2 cut turbinado sugar
2 1/2 cups fresh strawberries cleaned and hulled
4 tablespoons fresh lime juice
3-4 tablespoons vegan tequila
2 1/2 tablespoons vegan triple sec
Method:
dissolve sugar into warm water and cool. in a blender or food processor, blend strawberries, lime juice, tequila and triple sec. gradually add the sugar mixture and pour into ice cream maker. garnish with lime and sugar or salt on glass rim.
Be sure to follow the Lazy Susan round and check out Amy Boring with vegan pistachio ice cream.

refreshing friday ~ light chocolate chip shake

The girls, the dog and I have been in Scottsdale this week kicking off our Summer of Fun. Ya know what? It’s hot here! I mean REALLY hot, like almost 110 degrees. We are fine with that as most of our week has been spent playing in the pool, reading and eating cold stuff. We have had our share of popsicles this week and when I just had to have a vegan milkshake, I didn’t expect all of the trouble finding my ingredients in a new town would bring. After 3 different groceries stores who didn’t offer even one vegan ice cream option, we headed to AJ’s fine foods since I was fairly sure they would have it. They did- yippee- so we could finally get back to the original craving, an old fashioned chocolate chip milkshake.

Ingredients:

1/2 cup ice
1/2 cup light soy milk
1 1/2 cups vegan vanilla ice cream
1/4 teaspoon vanilla
1 tablespoon vegan chocolate chips

Method:

combine ice and soy milk in blender and mix well, until ice is in very small pieces. add ice cream and vanilla and blend until smooth. add chocolate chips and mix just until they are chopped and incorporated. garnish with additional chips, chocolate sauce or cocoa powder.
