Chef Katie’s Plant-Based Cooking Tips:
Other Fruits Ice Creams: You can use other sweet fruits for this recipe. Frozen blueberries, peaches, and pineapples are make delicious variations. Keep bananas as the base and swap out the strawberries with these other fruits.
Vegan Chocolate Chips? Most chocolate chips contain dairy milk. However, some dark chocolate varieties are dairy-free. Double-check the ingredients label. Or, stick with a vegan brand like Enjoy Life.
Chocolate Chip Alternatives? If you’re avoiding chocolate, you can omit the chocolate chips. Or, substitute with chopped peanuts or toasted coconut. You can also substitute raw cacao nibs for the vegan chocolate chips. Cacao nibs have a more bitter flavor, but they provide the same crunchy topping. Plus, they have less refined sugar and oil than vegan chocolate chips.
Frozen glasses: To make these frozen treats last longer, place your serving glasses in the freezer at least an hour before serving. Small parfait glasses or rocks glasses work great for these small sundaes.
Frozen strawberries are healthy and delicious year-round. 
Freeze bananas when they are ripe. They’re great to use for Nice Cream, smoothies, or baking 
Freeze your serving glasses for nice cream that lasts longer
