During the summer, Evive smoothies are your best companion and whether you’re by the water, at your cottage or in the mountains, you’ll need a refreshing healthy recipe to help you overcome the heat! This healthy strawberry banana ice cream is the perfect solution.

Enjoy this sweet, delectable taste with the Evive’s delicious Viva smoothie that makes the most beautiful 100% natural ice cream you’ll ever see!

Create the healthy strawberry and banana ice cream recipe 

Ingredients:

– 2 Evive Viva Smoothie Wheels
– 2 cans of coconut cream (400ml each) or 1 ½ cups of coconut cream
– Ice cream cones
– Pieces of strawberries and pitaya for garnish

Healthy Strawberry Banana Ice Cream

Steps:

1. Open the cans of coconut cream and separate the coconut cream from the coconut water. Conserve the coconut water for other uses.

2. Blend the coconut cream and Evive smoothie cubes until smooth and creamy. The texture of coconut cream is highly dependent on its temperature. Therefore, it’s preferable that both the cubes and the coconut cream are at a similar temperature.

3. Pour the mixture into 4-6 empty Evive plastic wheels. If you want to get the perfect texture cover with plastic wrap and transfer to the freezer for 4-6 hours or until mixture is completely frozen.

4. Depending on the number of cones, pop the cubes of 1 or more wheels in a food processor (1 wheel will fill approximately 1 cone).

5. Pulsate a few times to crush the cubes into pieces and mix until you get an ice cream texture. It may take a few minutes, stopping the food processor every so often to scrape the edges.

6. Serve while everything is cold and enjoy!

Pssst! Head to an IGA near you to get a bag of VIVA!

  5. Wait a few minutes then unmold the cake and put on a cooling rack.

The Benefits of Plant-Based Foods https://blog.evivenutrition.ca/en/wellness/the-benefits-of-plant-based-foods/ https://blog.evivenutrition.ca/en/wellness/the-benefits-of-plant-based-foods/#respond Tue, 08 Oct 2019 16:08:37 +0000 http://blog.evivenutrition.ca/uncategorized/the-benefits-of-plant-based-foods/ Have you ever considered reducing the amount of meat you eat and substituting protein-rich legumes such as beans and lentils?

Have you ever considered reducing the amount of meat you eat and substituting protein-rich legumes such as beans and lentils? These plant-based foods may not be top of mind when you think about protein, but they are excellent sources of this essential nutrient, and contain less fat and fewer calories.
 
Consider swapping beef, chicken and even milk or eggs for foods like chickpeas, black beans, peas, almonds and pumpkin seeds. Vegetarian proteins may reduce your risk of heart disease by helping you maintain healthy cholesterol levels and lowering your blood pressure. In addition, studies have shown that plant-based foods may cut your risk for Type 2 diabetes and obesity, and their high-fibre content helps keep you regular – a plus for both digestive and general health.
 
Eating less animal protein shouldn’t mean switching to store-bought highly processed faux meat like veggie burgers and veggie dogs, which are loaded with salt and hard-to-pronounce ingredients. Eliminating meat just one a day a week from your diet offers more than just health benefits: it’s good for the environment, and meatless meals usually cost less.
 
More than fourty-four countries now promote ‘Meatless Mondays,’ an international movement that encourages people to reduce their meat consumption. So why not jump on the bandwagon? Consider making curry chickpeas instead of chicken curry or prepare burgers using brown rice and mushrooms instead of ground beef. Top your salads with toasted sunflower seeds instead of bacon bits. The options are endless. You will thrive with less meat in your diet as long as you choose whole, real foods that nourish your body, mind and soul.

Evive Yogi Smoothie Pancakes with Veggemo Milk https://blog.evivenutrition.ca/en/vegan-recipes/evive-yogi-smoothie-pancake-with-veggemo-milk/ https://blog.evivenutrition.ca/en/vegan-recipes/evive-yogi-smoothie-pancake-with-veggemo-milk/#respond Tue, 08 Oct 2019 16:08:37 +0000 http://blog.evivenutrition.ca/uncategorized/evive-yogi-smoothie-pancake-with-veggemo-milk/ Although Evive smoothies are perfect for busy mornings, it always feels good to take care of yourself in the morning […]

Although Evive smoothies are perfect for busy mornings, it always feels good to take care of yourself in the morning with pancakes. What could be better than a recipe for vegan pancake, ready with only 7 ingredients in 15 minutes?

I revisited my usual pancake recipe by adding Veggemo vegetable milk and an Evive Yogi smoothie wheel. The idea of adding a little “greens” to a tasty breakfast pleased me, but the result is even more pleasing to me! It doesn’t taste like vegetables and the colour is beautiful.

 

Ingredients 

 

    • 1 Evive Yogi wheel

 

    • 1 ¼ of flour (or
      whole grain/whole wheat if desired)

 

    • 2 tablespoons coconut (or cane) sugar

 

      • 1 tablespoon baking powder
        a pinch of salt

     

      •  1 tablespoon vegetable oil

     

    •  1 cup of no sugar added Veggemo milk

 

 

Evive pancakeThe steps

1 . Unmould the Yogi wheel and let the cubes melt in a bowl.

2 . In a large bowl, combine the dry ingredients: flour, sugar, baking powder and salt.

3 . Crush the melted Yogi cubes with a fork to purée them. Add the oil and Veggemo milk. Mix well.

4 . Stir in wet ingredients to dry ingredients, but do not overmix pancakes mixture.

5 . Preheat your stove (preferably non-stick) to medium heat for a few minutes, then lower your heat slightly, oil your stove and cook your pancakes. When bubbles begin to appear and the edges are slightly golden, turn your pancake over, about 2-3 minutes on each side.

Why make your Pancake with Veggemo? Because they are different vegetable milks, they are nuts-free, soy-free, gluten-free and have a very rich and creamy texture. If you want to use them for other recipes they share them on Facebook and Instagram.

We love adding them to our smoothies bowls, but after testing this recipe for pancakes, you will certainly be delighted!
