cherry walnut ice cream

This is really simple and really good.

Ingredients:

1 bag frozen cherries

1/4 cup raw walnuts or cashews

1/2 cup pomegranate juice or orange juice (fresh squeezed preferable!)

Blend in a high powered blender. If you think ahead of time, put your bowl in the freezer 15 minutes before preparing. then the ice cream doesn't melt as fast. Super sweet and good with no added sugar!

fresh-squeezed pomegranate/grape juice

I invested in a hand-crank citrus juicer and it's the best I've ever used--faster and easier to use. You can juice a pomagranate same way as an orange. First, cut it in half:

Then put it in the juicer and smash with the crank:

I also tried some concord grapes for fun:

It was a little more messy. I tasted this and it was yummy. I added the rest to a smoothie. mmmm.
