There's just something about pink ice cream that makes me happy. And makes me think of unicorns and rainbows. And who would've guessed that you could create such a beautiful ice cream with beetroot!

Ingredients

4 large ripe bananas, frozen
a handful of chopped fresh beetroot *
2 tbsp agave syrup or preferred sweetener

also:
- a high-speed blender or food processor (NO NEED FOR AN ICE CREAM MAKER!)


Instructions 

First blend your chopped raw beet. (you could probably use cooked beet instead, but i haven't tried that myself)
Then add the frozen bananas, broken into chunks. If you don't have a super duper high-speed blender, let them thaw a couple of minutes, and/or add a splash of almond milk.
Once it begins to form a creamy mass, add your sweetener of choice. I'm using agave this time, but you could also use coconut blossom sugar, stevia, xylitol or whatever else suits you.
Enjoy!

* Don't worry about the taste. The ice cream won't taste like beetroot since the ripe bananas and your sweetener will overpower everything : )


Also, i just noticed the lovely Rachel from Bubbly Nature Creations featured my sweet pink beet ice cream this week! Much appreciated! :)
