Add navy beans, non-dairy milk, banana, honey and extracts to the just of your high powered blender and blend on high for 3 minutes or until ridiculously smooth.

You have to blend the mix until it’s smooth. The smoother, the better. Blend it… HARD!

Then you pour the mix into a bowl and mix it with the chopped strawberries and pitted cherries.

If you have an ice cream maker, follow the ice cream maker instructions above. I have this Cuisinart Ice Cream Maker and I love it dearly. We keep the bowl in the freezer at all times so ice cream can be made on a whim.

If you don’t have an ice cream maker, I included non-ice cream maker instructions in the recipe, too. It’s good either way.

And… the last thing I have to say about this recipe…

Don’t let the beans scare you.

Embrace the bean.

Your life will be better because of it.

What’s the craziest recipe/meal you’ve seen/read/eaten?

Beans in ice cream definitely tops the cake for me. So strange, so good, so totally making this one more than once!
