Happy Friday all!
Hope you’ve started off your weekend right! I know I did.
Summer is just around the corner and it’s about to be #nicecream season!
Digging into this bowl of purple fluff topped with fresh berries, cashews, plantain chips (does anyone else do this? There’s something about the saltiness that really compliments the sweet), and delicious cocoa nib squares. Not a lot of people like 100% cocoa, but for me, it’s like having a good cup of coffee. ☕️
Nice cream is made of:
1.5 frozen nanas
A cup of frozen bloobs
3 large frozen strawberries
1 tbsp of soy yogurt
A cup of ice
A splash of vanilla almond milk.
Blend until fluffy and gorge!

These are so easy to make and they’re perfect for a weeknight dinner or your next summer cookout! They’re brimming with tender, juicy shrimp and vitamin packed veggies and it’s all deliciously seasoned. And the best part, it’s all cooked together in individual foil packs so clean up couldn’t be easier!

1 small yellow squash, ends trimmed, sliced into quarters (1 1/3 cups)
1 pint grape tomatoes
1 green bell pepper, chopped (1 cup)
½ small red onion, chopped into chunks and separated
1 ½ cups fresh corn
1 ¼ lbs. large (21/25) raw shrimp, peeled and deviened
3 Tbsp olive oil
3 garlic cloves, minced (1 Tbsp)
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tsp paprika
½ tsp celery seed
½ tsp dried thyme
¼ tsp cayenne pepper (or to taste, optional)
1 ½ Tbsp minced parsley, for garnish (optional)
4 lemon wedges, for serving
Instructions
Preheat a grill over medium-high heat to 425 degrees.Cut 8 sheets of 12 by 14-inch heavy duty aluminum foil. Use two sheets of foil per packet.
To a large mixing bowl add zucchini, squash, tomatoes, bell pepper, red onion, corn and shrimp.
Drizzle over olive oil then sprinkle over garlic, 1 tsp salt, ½ tsp pepper, paprika, celery seed, thyme and cayenne pepper.
Toss mixture well to evenly coat.
Layer two sheets of foil per packet, with the first sheet of foil laying in opposite direction of the second. Divide mixture among double lined foil adding it to the center in a rectangular shape.
Wrap up sides of first sheet of foil and roll edges several times to seal, then place second sheet going opposite length and wrap while rolling edges to seal.
Grill until shrimp is cooked through, about 12 - 14 minutes, while filliping packets over to opposite side once halfway through grilling.
Carefully open packets as steam will escape. Sprinkle with parsley and serve with lemon juice for spritzing.

I don’t know why but I think plain nice cream is my favourite flavour. Don’t get me wrong I love açai or chocolate or PB nice cream but I’m still always surprised at how good plain nice cream is !
I topped it with heaps of granola, choc sauce, and caramel sauce. Not so plain. Heh.
