The temps continue to rise here in ole San Antonio, hitting close to 80 degrees…in February!! Can you believe that? I hate the heat in the winter, it isn’t natural. It should be freezing, or at least coldish and raining here. Hmph, but I got in the game and made this Tropical Freeze.
This freeze is super easy, cheap and quick. It is great for quick entertaining when you need a dessert, or like me, I make a batch and portion out and freeze them so I can have them for snacks with low calories later. My favorite! Usually I do these freezes as a banana ice cream and coffee ice cream or even pumpkin pie ice cream…all made with bananas. They are all awesome, healthy and made of fruit only.

I got the frozen mango, pineapple and peaches from the Dollar Tree and already had the coconut milk so this dessert was only three dollars! Add cinnamon and this was awesome.

Ooh, even though it’s cold here, I’m always good for some chilled desserts – especially if they are healthy! Do you think this would work with almond milk?
It is good, and would be excellent with almond milk also – I had bought the coconut milk because I had a coupon, but you can use whichever kind you like. Enjoy!
Wow, so easy! It looks delicious. Thanks for sharing : )
Thanks! This turned out so good, and was really what I needed – fruity and delicious!
They look great! I’ve made the banana based freezes. I’m intrigued by the coffee flavor…and will give the tropical ones a try 🙂
I love the fruit “ice creams” or freezes. They are super easy, and can go as far as your imagination wants. I mean coffee ice cream for breakfast? And no sugar in it? Love it!
