American federal labeling standards require ice cream to contain a minimum of 10% milk fat (about 7 grams (g) of fat per 1/2 cup [120 mL] serving) and 20% total milk solids by weight (Thank you Wikipedia). So by definition, any "ice cream" made without milk isn't really ice cream. But don't worry, we'll still let you call it that!
So can you replace the milk in your ice cream recipe with something else and have it still taste good? YES!

Your mother always told you to eat your vegetables. But she never said you couldn't eat them as dessert!
Last week I posted the video of Regis & Kelly sampling the Thanksgiving dinner ice cream flavors from Country Cow Creamery. So here's a great sweet corn recipe I found so you can make your own.
Fresh corn is rich is thiamin (vitamin B1), panthothenic acid (vitamin B5), folate, dietary fiber, vitamin C, phosphorus and manganese. It supports the health of your heart and your lungs, improves memory and helps maintain energy.
So why not eat it in the form of ice cream?!

So, a few posts back I mentioned that I was going to try to make pumpkin ice cream with coconut milk instead of cream. What an adventure that was!
First off, I grabbed a can of pumpkin pie filling from the store. You know, the one that has everything but eggs & evaporated milk in it?
And then I had 2 cans of coconut milk. So I blended them together (it was very thick -- that should have been my first warning sign) and put it in the ice cream maker.
I ended up with this:
It wasn't bad. It wasn't very sweet or ... {Tags: coconut, pumpkin} {More...}

One of my favorite kinds of pie is definitely pecan pie. Our friend from Louisiana always gets a kick out of how we “Northerners” pronounce pecan. I say pee-can and she says it more like puh-kahn. I didn’t realize how differently we said things. I guess I’ll have to go watch When Harry Met Sally and listen to Billy Crystal coach Meg Ryan how to say pecan: “I would like to partake of your pecan pie.”
The dictionary offers up both pronunciations, but puts my southern friend’s version first: pe·can [pi-kahn, -kan, ... {Tags: maple, pecan, thanksgiving} {More...}
