Tropical Papaya Boats Recipe! #tipit by Vanessa Luft Tropical Papaya Boats Recipe! #tipitIngredients 1 ripe papaya or cantaloupe, halved, seeds removed 1 cup Banana Ice Cream or Flavored Dairy-free Yogurt (I love blueberry coconut yogurt from Trader Joe's) 1 kiwi, skin removed and chopped 1/2 cup cherries, pitted and halved 1/4 cup blueberries 2-3 Tbsp slivered almonds 1 Tbsp chia seeds 1/2 Tbsp hemp seeds GranolaInstructions To make banana ice cream (instead of using dairy-free yogurt), add 2 ripe, previously sliced and frozen bananas to a blender or food processor and blend on low until a creamy ice cream consistency is reached. Scrape down sides as needed, and add a splash of almond milk if it has trouble blending. To assemble papaya (or cantaloupe) boats, simply fill the hollow centers with desired amounts of banana ice cream or coconut yogurt, fruit, nuts and seeds! Enjoy immediately - best when fresh.
