Healthy Choices: Sorbet instead of ice-cream

Red Velvet Sorbet

4 large, ripe bananas frozen (freeze at least day before)
10 oz. frozen raspberries
2 T. (non-alkalized) cocoa powder
4-5 dates chopped

Blend all in high powered blender like Vita-Mix until creamy. I liked the small chunks of fruit that didn't get mixed. Ready to eat or if it's too creamy you can refreeze for 3-5 min. (I didn't have to do that) Makes enough for 4. This tasted like heaven. I'm ready to make it again.

Strawberry Pineapple Sorbet

10 oz. frozen strawberries
1/2 c. orange juice
4 slices dried pineapple, unsweetened and unsulphured
1 c. fresh organic strawberries sliced

Blend all except fresh strawberries in high power blender. Pour into dessert dish, top with fresh strawberries.
