Welcome!

The vast majority of these recipes are:

Gluten-Free
Yeast-Free
Dairy-Free
Egg-Free
Wheat-Free
Kosher

You may occasionally find recipes with corn products but those should be obvious and with some you can modify them with little problems. Most of the recipes are also soy-free but the little buy of soy you may find is located in pan sprays or products that need a thickening agent. Use your judgement and read labels!! :-)

Dairy Free Milkshake

The Hillbilly housewife had this recipe on her blog and I snagged it and made it completely dairy free.

1 1/2 c. cold vanilla rice milk
About 1 1/2 - 2 trays of ice
1/3 c. sugar
1/4 c. unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tsp vanilla (if desired)
2 T. olive oil plus a 5-second squirt of pan spray

Blender should be about 3/4 full of ice. Place all ingredients in a blender and blend for 2 minutes. Do not omit any ingredients or the milkshake will not form. The oil and pan spray is needed for emulsification purposes and to give a creamy texture and appearance. It will have an appearance similar to a Wendy's frosty but much healthier, with no artificial flavors or colors and most ingredients are found at home.

You can omit the cocoa powder and only 1/2 c. sugar with 1 T. pure vanilla extract for a vanilla shake.
Add 1 ripe banana and you get a chocolate banana milkshake.
Reduce ice cup by cup for frozen strawberries and adjust sugar to your tastes to get a strawberry shake.
Add a scoop of rice protein powder to add protein and other essential aminos to your shake.
