I just cooked up the vanilla and it is cooling.

If I was to use fresh mint, tomorrow’s project, any idea how much would I use? I thought that I would mix it with the spinach. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated , thank you!

So sorry! I corrected that in the recipe card. It should be 1.5 TBSP

Hey Dee,
1. That's not necessary, however if your blender isn't very powerful that could help. A high-powered blender is really important for this recipe.
2. Not for this recipe
3. Yep!

Thanks!

Hi, thanks for this recipe. I made it today and the flavour was great but my consistency of the ice cream was very grainy al I wondered:
1. When you soak the cashews should they be in boiling water?
2. Is there a need to cook any of the ingredients? I usually cook my ice cream ingredients so wondered why there wasn’t a need
3. When you say to freeze the ice cream in the a loaf tin, will you just cover it with cling film?

Many thanks! Hoping to try making this again!

Yeah. If you follow the instructions from this post: https://www.mydarlingvegan.com/diy-ice-cream-sundae-bar/ you should be able to get a pretty good, creamy ice cream.

The amount of mint you would need to make it green would be a little strong in flavor for the ice cream. However, you could use fresh mint for the recipe and it will be a more natural color. And it would taste delicious!

Thanks, Robin. I know how you feel about the first year of the babies life. 6 months have gone by and I have no idea how!

I worked as an independent contractor when they were babies so I could keep them out of full time day care. When I think back I can hardly remember the first year of my younger sons life because I was so stressed between the baby, helping my oldest adjust, and fitting in the work. I should have rocked more. Don't worry, the dishes can wait and so can we. And if you do complain at times on the blog, every parent understands and knows you love those babies.

Totally. I got into this bad habit of "catching up" on social media when nursing Nash. But since he's my last and this phase won't last forever I have been putting down my phone and soaking it all into my memory. It's become so special again.

Thank you lovely mama for the gentle reminder. It's hard to always enjoy being in the moment (especially mid-tantrum!), but when he stops mid-play and climbs up onto my lap for a cuddle or a nurse, I do everything in my power to freeze time and breath it in.

Thanks, Annie. I think your right that life can race by us no matter what are circumstances are. The phrase that keeps going through my head is, "life only moves in one direction." I don't want to miss each moment because I filled my life too full or worried too much about how it looks. And that is my challenge for this time especially - one that is filled with some of the hardest days and most amazing days.

I know that I will stand on the other side of the raising babies one day and be sad at how fast it went. I am really trying to practice living in the moment with these kids, because like you said, that moment is fleeting.

If you are looking to totally get rid of the coconut flavor, try subbing with soy or almond milk. The cashews are rich and creamy enough.
