POPEYE’S SPINACH SURPRISE ICE CREAM RECIPE

This is an ice cream packed with goodness that surely anyone can love!

It’s SECRETLY healthy, creamy and DELICIOUS! Many of you have seen this ice cream in a local demonstration of your Blendtec high powered blender, and here’s the recipe!

We have made this several different ways – It can be non dairy or vegetarian by using a milk substitute such as coconut milk (from a can is thicker and will be creamier) and adding a protein boost by using a scoop of Vega One Vanilla Protein powder!

Since its perfectly sweet, you don’t even have to tell the little ones the SURPRISE ingredient (spinach!!!) that helps makes it so green AND nutritious!

But should they find out, just tell ’em its got the stuff Popeye’s made of.

STRENGTH. 🙂

Ice Cream can sometimes be tricky, you’ll have it down in no time with our Ice Cream tips using your Blendtec or Vitamix blender.

SPINACH HEALTH BENEFITS & FUN FACTS

Spinach originated in ancient Persia and then was transported to China and down through Europe.

Catherine de Medici, wife of King Henry II so loved spinach that she always made sure she had cooks who could prepare it especially for her. The term “a la Florentine,” which refers to any dish prepared on a bed of spinach, is attributed to her.

Spinach is a powerhouse of nutrition rich in many vitamins and nutrients.

Blendtec Promo Code

Experts have identified at least thirteen different compounds in spinach that provide antioxidant and/or anti-cancer benefits.

Spinach is rich in calcium and magnesium, which helps prevent osteoporosis.

It is also an excellent source of iron, which is critical for women in menopause and for people who have anemia or chronic fatigue syndrome.

Spinach contains vitamin E, which helps slow mental decline and memory loss.

  1. Hi Matasha! Welcome to Blender Babes! I’m not familiar with the Daniel Fast, will have to check it out. Thanks for the feedback & happy blending!!

  2. 5 stars
    I love the taste of the Popeye’s Spinach Ice Cream. I do not have the twister for the Blendtec so my consistency was more of a sherbert. Would like to see a creamer consistency next time. GREAT Flavor!!!

    1. For a creamier texture, try adding a half or whole frozen banana (sliced) in next time! Something magical happens when you blend frozen bananas that is very reminiscent of ice cream… let us know how it goes! Happy Blending!

    Tried this using my Blendtec and it was YUMMMY! Also gave some to people on the Daniel Fast and they loved having a healthy treat:)

      Love it NOrma! How did it go?! This is one of our favorite healthy frozen treats 🙂

        Yes you may store leftovers in the freezer. Sometimes we freeze them in ice cube trays and use them instead of ice for our smoothies! 🙂 xoxo!
