After being diagnosed with IC (interstitial cystitis), finding something to eat that I enjoy is becoming quite an ordeal. Everyone says, “just adjust your recipes”, but that can be easier said than done. Hence, I shall post recipes that are IC friendly, that have been adapted or have been found online to share with others. I hope you like the recipes as much as I do. :)

Minty Shakes
Adjust the milk to your preference, a little more for a thinner shake or less if you prefer a nice thick shake. Since green food coloring is a no-no for IC, the shakes will not be green like in the picture. You can make it green by DIY Natural Food Coloring or use organic food coloring without problem ingredients. I adapted this recipe from withablast.net to make it IC friendly.
Minty Shakes
4 Servings
Ingredients:
4 cups Vanilla Ice-Cream (without problem ingredients)
1 cup Milk {more or less to your preference}
1/2 t Peppermint Concentrate OR 2 t Peppermint Essence (without problem ingredients)
4 to 6 drops of DIY Natural Food Coloring or use organic food coloring without problem ingredients (optional)
Whipped Cream, to top (without problem ingredients)
Mint Leaves, to garnish
Directions:
1. Place the Ice-Cream, Milk, Concentrate/Essence and food coloring in a large blender or milkshake maker - blend until smooth - pour into 4 glasses.
2. Top with Whipped Cream and garnish with Mint Leaves.
3. Serve immediately.
