What's more refreshing on a hot, summer day than ICE CREAM? Skip the mucus-forming dairy ice cream and the non-fat artificial-sugar-laden frozen yogurtand check out my all natural, nutrient-rich version. Tastes just as good (trust me), but without all the junk. You might even (gasp!) feel really good and ENERGIZED afterward!

No no, not THAT kind of fast food :-) I'm talking about food that takes little to no prep time, little to no cooking time, and goes from Ingredients to Tasty Meal in under 10 minutes.
