Everyone loves a sweet treat, right? Today I want to show you guys how I make a super easy, and pretty healthy, ice cream sundae treat! You can substitute any of the ingredients with your favorite toppings. Obviously, the main ingredient to start with is ICE CREAM!
I usually keep a few healthy ice creams on hand, like Halo Top or Enlightened when my sweet tooth arises, but sometimes we just use good, plain french vanilla with all the carbs and sugar. Start by adding a couple of scoops to your bowl. And then comes the fun part! I like adding some healthy protein like peanut butter (or any nut butter you like) and add a good, heaping spoonful and mix it into the ice cream. Don’t be stingy with the peanut butter, guys. THEN, I add in my crunch! I like to add roasted pecans but you can add in any nuts you have on-hand. On that note, do you say PEE-CAN or P-CAAN? Tim and I say it differently, like many things, which is always fun to hear the differences in our phrasing.
Next, I sprinkle in a little bit of cinnamon on top, and add some Lily’s baking chocolate chips! You can add any kind you have on-hand, I just like these kind because they don’t have a lot of sugar, and are sweetened with stevia instead. And then, voila! You have a super easy, super tasty treat!
