Banana Cream Pie and Rosemary Garlic…ice cream??
Crust: Use a crust of your choice - I used a chocolate nut crust.
Filling:
Now into the rosemary ice cream...hehe I'm kidding, I mean mashed potatoes - did I have you fooled at all with the pic? An ice cream scoop makes perfectly rounded mashed potatoes! Actually, did you know that mashed taters are often used in food photography and commercials for ice cream? Yup!
Here are THE MOST AMAZING raw mashed taters I've ever had - they far surpass the cauliflower version that I just can't get into despite the various recipes I've tried. Carmi made this for me during my last visit, and I've been itching to make it ever since - buuut, slight problem - I can't get jicama in my town. In fact, I have to travel 5 hours by car to get one! Fortunately, my mom was travelling to Halifax and picked up a 5 lb jicama for me! Yay mom, travelled all the way back on planes and cars with this baby! Yippee! Enjoy Carmella's version of the recipe from Everday Raw.

It does look a little like ice cream. The title made me curious.
You are amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh yum, girlie! Now that I have easy access to the precious jicama, I should making some of those tatoes again.<br /><br />And that pie looks scrumptious. I have some of your chockie sauce left-over and this looks like the perfect way to use it.<br /><br />Off to my savory D day. Yay! ;-)
shannon - your cuppycakes look really amazing!<br /><br />Yard! Hows it going? havent talked to you in ages!<br /><br />Dearie - yes yes, can never get tired of those tatoes! Right, D day, cant wait to hear all about it!
ooh i want to try! there are jicamas near me but they are the saddest, ugliest, most pathetic ones you can imagine. squishy and moldy. bleh.
Anything I can use in place of lecithin? (Don't have any...) Or, could I maybe skip that ingredient? <br /><br />Love your blog, btw. I linked to one of your other banana chocolate pie yesterday from our blog (www.PureJeevan.com/blog)!<br /><br />-Jim
Hi Heathy,<br /> this is my first time posting a comment but I have been reading your blog religiously for quite some time. I am a naturopathic student in Ontario Canada and want to integrate a raw food diet into my lifestyle. I already unconsciously eat about 75% raw but would love a mentor in the area. I also want to be able to offer my future patients information about raw food diets and their benefits. I would love to share information about alternative medicine with you in exchange for some raw guidance.<br /><br />Thanks,<br />Jen
Sarah - yup, I find that jicamas go bad quite fast - maybe you can find out when your grocery store gets them in, and buy one that day? It'll be worth your while ;)<br /><br />Jim - Thank you! :) Been to your blog before too! <br />The lecithin definately helps to stablize, but you could use extra coconut oil in place - it just might not be quite as firm.<br /><br />Jen - Hey! Nice to meet you- Im guessing that you're in Southern ON - you at the school in Toronto? Years ago I almost went there. Very cool that you're going to offer raw diet plans to your patients! Would defintately love to do a share - whats your email?
my email is jen.a.newell@gmail.com<br />Thanks<br />Jen
Hey Ms. girlie! Thanks for your well wishes on my blog the other day! YOu're so sweet!<br /><br />That pie looks fab! Mmm....chocolate and bananas in a pie...YUM!<br /><br />And the "ice cream" looks great too. You tricked me with the title! I was beginning to wonder about you. ;)
