Guest guest Posted May 15, 2011 Report Share Posted May 15, 2011 Some of the best tomatoes I ever ate was in the first few years after we moved into the house I grew up in, back in the early 50's. The house was built on former tomato fields, back when tomatoes were not hybridized like they are now. The town was famous for it's Heinz Ketchup factory. Anyhow, for several years on this one side each year big old rambling tomato plants would come up in the same area and put out the best tomatoes. Dad just let nature do her thing and we reaped the harvest. After a while it stopped, but they were good while they lasted.

I want a little semblance of order, but if stuff does so well that it's running rampant, I will consider myself a success! For the time being, the mint that I got has been planted in a rectangular planter and is on my deck railing. Unless the stuff makes a break for it and jumps down into my yard, I think it's contained. ;-) > > From: <kareningotham@...> > Subject: Re: Re: Spinach Ice Cream? > > Date: Sunday, May 15, 2011, 6:58 PM > > > > Aren't the different varieties wonderful?

Guest guest Posted May 18, 2011 Report Share Posted May 18, 2011 LOL, sorry, April, but you will quickly learn I am not a "recipe" person. My food allergies made it where I learned to just chuck stuff in the VM until it works for me. I just put about the same volume of cooked white beans in as anyone else would use a banana. I often use beans as a base, but my favorite it pumpkin. My pumpkin pie ice cream "recipe" is in the files section.From: April Pease <alp@...>Subject: Re: Spinach Ice Cream?

Sounds good and will have to try it. - April > For those who avoid bananas, pumpkin, winter squash, and white beans all make a wonderful ice cream base. All are mild and will easily blend in with the other flavorings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 18, 2011 Report Share Posted May 18, 2011 I use beans in place of animal fat in most of my recipes. Works great!MarthaFrom: Berry <berrywell@...> Sent: Wednesday, May 18, 2011 9:41 PMSubject: Re: Re: Spinach Ice Cream? LOL, sorry, April, but you will quickly learn I am not a "recipe" person.
