Chocolate Banana Ice Cream
Summer is in full swing and this creami creation is the perfect way to cool off. I purchased a Ninja Creami last year – it’s been an amazing way to make low sugar, high protein ice cream at home!
You can use whatever milk you like in this recipe. I’m mostly dairy free so I prefer nut milk!

A Ninja Creami
Ingredients:
1 banana, sliced

Instructions:
Add the banana slices to the bottom of your creami pint.
Mix together the almond milk and protein powder, then pour the mixture over the banana slices.
Freeze the pint overnight, then process under the ice cream setting!
Add chocolate chunks to the center of your ice cream mixture, then process again under the mix-in setting!
