I told you that the boyfriend would be back soon 
Ice cream that packs not only fruit servings, but a vegetable serving as well?
The only way it could be better is if this ice cream tasted outta-this-world delicious.
Oh wait. It does!
Awhile ago, I posted about Chocolate-Covered Strawberry Ice Cream.
Last week, I made this already-healthy ice cream even more nutritious by subbing in my new love—Amazing Grass Chocolate Superfood—for 1/2 of the cocoa powder. Twice as nutritious, just as delicious 
.
Plus, I got to use Mr. Vitamix, who’d been feeling underappreciated as of late. (But as I mentioned in my Single Ladies’ post, Viti-Man will be seeing much more action in the coming weeks.)

Hey la, hey la, my boyfriend’s back…
What’s your favorite ice cream flavor? Growing up, mine was always Mint Chocolate Chip. It wasn’t so much the taste I loved; it was the color! (Although chocolate + mint is always a good combination, as the crack-in-a-wrapper bars prove )
$$$-Saving Reminder:
Don’t forget that the Amazing Grass coupon code is still good (until the end of the year). I’m partial to the Chocolate Super Food Powder, but the code is good for ALL Amazing Grass orders. So stock up now .

i think you should open up a chocolate covered vegan store somewhere close to me because you seriously come up with the tastiest meals that are super healthy
My favorite ice cream flavor is chocolate with chocolate swirl, with chocolate chunk, with chocolate fudge, and chocolate chips, with hot fudge on top. And maybe some butterscotch. CHOCOLATE!
I love your breakfast ice cream! Now that is a good way to start the day!
I love mint chocolate chip ice cream! My other favorites are chocolate chip cookie dough and oreo ice cream!
Chocolate cheesecake
Or Triple Chocolate (but only the white chocolate and dark chocolate section, haha)
Or Brownie fudge
Or Cookie n’ Cream
Well, every ice cream, except it has to have at least 2 colours, otherwise it’s boring :p
I love that you loved Mint Chip due to the color — I have a thing for foods that are not the color they are “supposed” to be. (Golden Raspberries, Purple/Red/Yellow Carrots, Purple/Orange/Green Cauliflower, Pink Hot Cocoa [<-got this as a gift once!], all those gorgeous tie-dye heirloom tomatoes….I'm sure there are more) Maybe it is the painter in me that never shuts up, but off-colored foods are SO much more fun
Now if they're teeny tiny AND cool-colored, I'm in heaven!
Cinnamon ice cream or peppermint ice cream. MMMMMMM.
I love Mint Chocolate Chip!!
I do love the color of mint chocolate chip as well
Then again, I haven’t met a green I didn’t like! My favorite flavor is probably pumpkin spice. You can’t go wrong with pumpkin!
oh honey ditto to peanutbutterbliss – you NEED to open up your own vegan store.. I would totes spend all my moolah thurr!
my fav ice cream flavor = cake batter… major swooooonz.
love you Kataaay!
Mint chocolate was my favorite too!! One is because I love mint but also love the color green!!
OMG you are freakin psychic again. I have never had the Hershey’s Spesh Dark. Only regular. Well my new grocer carries the Dark and I bought some last week. Havent popped the lid, trying to use up the regular cuz I have a feeling when I do open the Dark, I will never turn back to the regular. Do you?
As for the Amazing trick using half n half of that and the Dark, does that impart any funky flavors? I have never had it. And if I were to say use Sun Warrior or Jay in Chocolate for half the cocoa powder in a recipe, i know I would be able to tell 100% about the swap. It would be fine, but just not “authentic”.
Your insight my love? I soooo appreciated your email as well my sweets
xoxox
Mm, looks yummy–as always. :]
My favorite ice cream when I was younger was definitely pink bubblegum. Two treats in one! Haha.
I am intrigued by your super healthy ice cream. If I ever decide to try Amazing Grass I am going to try your ice cream. It sounds much more interesting than just making a smoothie with it!
My favorite ice cream has always been coffee or mocha. I haven’t had much of it since going vegan though
I really like the cherry chip ice cream from Trader Joe’s too.
I loved mint chocolate chip as well. Will probably always be my favorite combo…well, I don’t know as chocolate + peanut butter is another fav. Too difficult to choose just one!
Oatmeal cookie crepe cakes?!? Now you’re talking!
Hope you had a good weekend Katie.
Wow that looks incredible!!
Super post!! Growing up I LOVED LOVED chocolate chip.. not mint.. straight up vanilla with choc. chips. I also liked the grocery store generic kind (I would get upset if my mom splurged for the Breyers) lol. Odd child?
Hope ya had a good weekend
My fave is toasted coconut!!!
I make low fat ice cream using tofu — and i love adding fruit to it… I tell myself “go have another bowl, its healthy! its beans and fruit!” hehe
So genius to sub Amazing Grass in for cocoa powder! I just bought some chocolate Green Superfood and love it. I’ve even started giving samples to my friends, who now refer to it as “Amazing Weed.”
My favourite ice-cream flavour would have to be either rum and raisin or maple pecan. Just love those complex smoky yummy flavours!
ahhhh!!!! i love ice cream! i could never pick one. but your creation sounds equally wonderful
the ice cream looks delicious. my favorite ice cream flavor growing up was ‘bananas on the rum’ from Ben and Jerry’s. the only vegan ice cream I’ve tried so far are Tofutti Cuties but they’re awesome!
I was a rocky road fan for a while, then I switched to chocolate chip cookie dough–let’s face it, I just liked having all the toppings IN the ice cream. Now I am more on a peppermint carob kick.
My fave ice cream flavor is choc banana and PB. I used to love the mint choc chip color too and always wanted that flavor. I still like it, but I am allergic to mint (yes, I’m a weird one) so I do not eat it. Once at a cold stone I ordered my fave ice cream (banana ice cream with PB and choc chip mixed in, banana) and my lips swelled up. Yeah, I learned to be m ore careful next time since the man 3 ahead of me ordered mint ice cream and then my ice cream was mixed on the same counter. Nice mint residue. And that is why I often ask for counters to be wiped down (that an if it was meaty). I hate cross contamination. But I love ice cream.
I was craving ice cream all weekend, but I didn’t have the chance to buy or make any. Come make a batch for meeeeeeee!
What have I been waiting for? I need to make those cake crepes A SAP!!
~Justine
I still haven’t tried the Amazing Grass, but it looks like it’s a really versatile product!!
My fav ice cream is currently all my homemade flavors–the top 2–pistachio/cherry pie and pumpkin cheesecake…yumm
I’m a big sucker for ice creams that contain chocolate & peanut butter in them. Or maybe coconut
