This ICE Is Nuts

  • by
COCONUT LIME POPSICLES

A lot of people think I am kind of nuts.

crazy gigiMy rebuttal to this claim is typically:

If the saying, you are what you eat, holds true… Then I am 100% NOT nuts… Because I cannot eat them! 

GiGi ThinkingHowever… Some might consider coconut to be a nut (NEWSFLASH: it’s a fruit), and as you all may very well know at this point, coconut byproducts are my go-to staples for pretty much all of my recipes (although I have yet to make coconut burgers).

To be completely honest, I cannot help but notice that I am actually starting to transform into one of those hairy hard balls that hang from palm trees…

GiGi Coconut TreeI just can’t stop and won’t stop gobbling it up.

GiGi-Eating-Cookies-Star-WarsOh wow… It sounds like I am a part-time porn star.

If you’re like my cooking companion (who adores VEGAN NACHOS just as much as I adore my salmon skin handrolls) this week, though… (Although we actually didn’t cook anything, we used the freezer to make our creation… So freezing companion???)… That above “forno” may not turn you on…

So how about this…

Moist. Lucious. VEGAN. Donuts.

Yep… If you thought I was a genius in the kitchen (I advise you to seek medical attention if that is, in fact, the case)… Then Leslie Durso is a downright food Einstein and gives Bill Nye a run for his money!

Bill Nye the SCIENCE GUY

Who else just read that with his signature tune?!

Speaking of signatures… If you want one, feel free to email me your request (I kid. I kid)… This week, I hopped on over to Leslie’s kitchen where we made what I feel like will soon be our signature recipe as it was utterly delicious and refreshing as well as vegan and GiGi-approved!

COCONUT LIME POPSICLES

Coconut Lime Popsicles

Put the lime in the coconut…

  • Grab your blender.
  • Throw all the ingredients into it.
  • Whirl away.
  • Get your ice cream mold (we used awesome ring pop molds!), pour mixture into it and freeze for 12-24 hours!
  • Hey, Mr. Science guy… You impressed?!

SO TELL ME…

  • Have you ever put the lime in the coconut?
  • What’s your favorite cool-down treat?
  • Are you a Bill Nye fan?
  • What’s your favorite combo to whirl in your blender?
  • What food are you slowly transforming into because you eat it so much?
