Cheater's Ice Cream

No ice cream around and a girls night in? (Or boys, whatever). No problem if you have these staples in the house.

You Need:

1 (10 ounce) package frozen sliced strawberries (or any other fruit really)
Up to 1/2 cup sugar or honey
2/3 cup yogurt, heavy cream, or cold coconut milk for a richer ice cream.
* Rice milk can be substituted, but ONLY if you're eating it right away. Will freeze solid.

Toss half of the yogurt in your blender or food processor, then add frozen fruit. Blend a bit, then add remaining yogurt.  Serve immediately, or freeze and serve later. Also good with frozen peaches (diced!) and raspberries.  I'm sure mango and blueberries and all that would work as well.  Do whatever, but make sure you chop it up so your blender doesn't snap under the pressure. Food processors are better (and faster).

Can't have dairy like me?  Use coconut yogurt, or coconut milk.

Bon Apettite!
