Strawberry Ice Cream Recipe
Ingredients:
2 cans (13.5 oz) full fat coconut milk, 1 can refrigerated
¼ cup maple syrup
1 tsp. Vanilla extract
Pinch of salt
¼ cup sugar
16 – 18 oz fresh organic strawberries
¾ cup raw cashews, soaked 4 – 6 hours, drained
1 Tbsp. arrowroot
Directions:
Freeze an ice cream insert from an ice cream maker for 24 hours.
Soak the cashews in cold water for 4 to 6 hours, or to speed up the process, 1 – 2 hours in hot water until softened and then drain.
Refrigerate 1 can of coconut milk overnight to help separate the fat from the coconut water. Pour off and save the coconut water for a smoothie and set the fat portion aside.
In a blender, preferably a vitamix, add the drained cashews, the non refrigerated coconut milk and the fat you separated from the chilled can. Add the maple syrup, ½ of the sugar, vanilla, salt and arrowroot.
Blend until the cashews are undetectable in the mix. We are looking for smooth and creamy! Then add the strawberries and blend again, scraping down the sides of the blender to completely combine everything.
Taste the mix and see if you want to add the rest of the sugar. If yes, add it now and blend again for 5 to 10 seconds.
Pour the ice cream mixture into mason jars or a bowl and put it in the refrigerator until completely cold, overnight is best.
When you are ready to make ice cream, bring out the frozen insert along with the churning part. Turn on the ice cream maker and then pour in the mixture. Let it churn for up to 20 minutes or until it looks like soft serve ice cream.
Pour the non dairy ice cream into a shallow glass dish, smooth it out, place on a lid and freeze. Oh, and don’t forget to take a taste!
Here are a few tips you can try. If your ice cream gets too hard, which it might, let it set out for 10 to 15 minutes before serving.
To prevent ice from forming on top of your ice cream, place saran wrap or even wax paper pressed right onto the top of the ice cream before putting the lid on.
Enjoy!

🏹 Essential Paleo Principles
- 🥩 Quality Protein Matters: Choose grass-fed beef, pasture-raised chicken, wild-caught fish, or wild game whenever possible. The quality of your protein directly impacts nutritional value and inflammatory markers. Conventional meat is acceptable if grass-fed isn’t available, but avoid processed meats with added sugars or preservatives.
- 🥑 Embrace Healthy Fats: Don’t fear fat! Use coconut oil for cooking, drizzle olive oil on vegetables, add avocado slices, and snack on nuts and seeds. Healthy fats are essential for hormone production, brain function, and nutrient absorption. They also keep you satisfied between meals.
- 🌈 Eat the Rainbow: Incorporate vegetables and fruits of all colors to maximize phytonutrient diversity. Dark leafy greens, orange sweet potatoes, red bell peppers, purple cabbage—each color provides unique beneficial compounds. Aim for 6-9 servings of vegetables daily.
- 🚫 Read Labels Carefully: Even “paleo-friendly” packaged foods can contain hidden non-paleo ingredients. Watch for added sugars (including “natural” ones like agave), seed oils, preservatives, and additives. When in doubt, stick to single-ingredient whole foods.
- 🥜 Navigate Nuts Wisely: While nuts are paleo-approved, they’re calorie-dense and can trigger inflammation if overconsumed. Stick to a small handful (about 1 ounce) as a serving. Soak and roast nuts to improve digestibility and reduce antinutrients.
- 🍠 Strategic Carb Timing: Adjust your starchy vegetable intake (sweet potatoes, squash, plantains) based on activity level. Active individuals need more carbs, while those focused on weight loss may benefit from lower carb paleo eating.
🔪 Paleo Cooking Mastery
- 🍳 Master Fat Sources: Keep coconut oil, ghee (if tolerated), avocado oil, and extra virgin olive oil stocked. Each has different smoke points—use coconut or avocado oil for high-heat cooking, olive oil for low-heat or finishing.
- 🧂 Season Like a Pro: Build your paleo spice cabinet with sea salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, cumin, turmeric, cinnamon, and dried herbs. These add tremendous flavor without non-paleo ingredients.
- 🥘 One-Pan Wonders: Paleo meals often work beautifully as sheet pan dinners. Protein + vegetables + healthy fat + seasonings = easy cleanup and maximum flavor development.
- 🌿 Fresh Herbs Transform: Cilantro, parsley, basil, rosemary, and thyme elevate simple paleo meals to restaurant quality. Add fresh herbs at the end of cooking for maximum impact.
- 🍋 Acid Brightens: A squeeze of lemon or lime juice, or a splash of apple cider vinegar brightens flavors and aids digestion. This simple trick makes paleo food pop.
- 🥥 Coconut Products Versatility: Coconut milk, coconut cream, coconut flour, and coconut aminos are paleo staples that add richness and functionality to countless recipes.
🤔 Paleo Diet Questions
🥛 Why no dairy on paleo?
The paleo approach excludes dairy because it wasn’t part of human diets until agriculture began about 10,000 years ago. Many people have difficulty digesting lactose or reacting to dairy proteins like casein. However, some paleo practitioners include grass-fed butter or ghee since they’re primarily fat with minimal lactose or protein. Listen to your body and adjust accordingly.
🌾 What about “paleo” baked goods?
While paleo baking using almond flour, coconut flour, and natural sweeteners is technically allowed, it’s best enjoyed occasionally rather than daily. These foods are still calorie-dense and can trigger the same blood sugar responses as regular treats. Focus primarily on whole foods rather than trying to recreate modern comfort foods in paleo versions.
💪 Can I build muscle on paleo?
Absolutely! Paleo provides abundant high-quality protein and nutrients needed for muscle growth. Athletes often add more starchy vegetables like sweet potatoes and adjust portion sizes to meet increased caloric needs. Many bodybuilders and CrossFit athletes thrive on paleo eating.
🍎 How much fruit on paleo?
While fruit is paleo-approved, modern fruits are much sweeter than wild varieties our ancestors ate. Enjoy 1-3 servings daily, focusing on berries (lower sugar) and balancing fruit intake with vegetables. If weight loss is your goal, moderate fruit consumption and choose vegetables as your primary plant foods.
