Ingredients

2 ripe bananas, sliced, frozen
1 cup mango (or pineapple) chunks, frozen
1 scoop vanilla protein powder
Splash of milk of choice
1 teaspoon spirulina powder or ½ cup spinach or kale

Toppings

Banana slices
Cacao nibs
Hemp hearts (seeds)

Instructions

Let the bananas and mangos thaw a bit (just 5 minutes or so), which will make them slightly easier to blend, then throw them along with the milk, spirulina powder and protein powder into a food processor or high speed blender.
Start blending on its lowest speed, then quickly increase to the highest speed, using the tamper to press ingredients toward the blades. Blend for 30 to 45 seconds or until smooth and creamy.
You can eat the nice cream straight out of the blender if you like the soft-serve texture. For a firmer texture, spoon the mixture into a dish and set it in the freezer for about 30 minutes until it firms up. Then just scoop, add your toppings, serve, and enjoy!
