ICECREAM: I Scream, You Scream, We All Scream for Ice cream!

What is the best brand of icecream?

I guess we could all say that is a matter of opinion.

But I would like to offer up an ice-cream brand and flavor that I think most individuals will greatly enjoy:

Mmmm. Delicious!!!

This is gluten-free, all-natural. Tastes like the “good ol’ days” of icecream.

Its list of ingredients is short, but its taste is delicious!

I really LOVE this brand of icecream!

Enjoy!

Rhubarb delicious leaf stalk

Scrumptious, Low-Sugar Fruit-Like Ingredient

Oh, WOW!!!

I remember the first time I had rhubarb!

It was in a rhubarb pie served at a local family diner. It was incredible!!!

And I was hooked!

Fast-forward several years –

To the time I needed to eat low-sugar, low-carb, gluten-free, keto-like foods.

In researching what I could possibly eat, I ran across one thing that was healthy, yet had VERY low sugar:

Enter rhubarb!

Just from looking at the vibrant red color, it looks healthy.

Combine it with strawberries (and some form of sweetener to your preference), and you have a simple, healthy, low-carb dessert.

It can help add variety to your diet, as well as provide nutrients to your body.

Win – win!

Where to find:

Grocery store – see photo below; you can find in the frozen food section, or in season, in produce

Health food store – look in produce section
