Sage Holistic Health Tip of the Month

COCONUT MILK ICE CREAM

Base Recipe:

2 cans coconut milk; 2 Tbs. arrowroot powder; 1/2 cup agave nectar or sugar; 2 tsp. almond extract

Empty cans of coconut milk into a medium size saucepan. Whisk to an even texture. Pour 1/2 cup coconut milk into a small bowl and add arrowroot powder. Whisk until no lumps remain, while heating the saucepan's contents on medium heat. Add arrowroot mixture to saucepan and whisk on medium heat until mixture starts to boil. Turn off burner and remove from heat. Cool to room temperature and add almond extract. Chill if desired. Process in ice cream maker according to directions. Enjoy!!

This recipe is easily altered for full gustatory delight:  Like chocolate?   Melt 2-4 baking chocolate squares in the saucepan before warming the coconut milk.  Try other extracts for flavoring.  Fruits of any type can be pureed then added to the warm mixture. Have some fun with it!

Food is the best medicine and is a cornerstone of our naturopathic practice. Many medical conditions can be treated more effectively with proper nutrition and targeted nutritional supplements than they can by other means, with fewer complications and side effects. We examine the diet and suggest healthy changes, cleansing and fasting, and nutritional supplementation in our practice.
