The inhalation for my Orange Cardamom Pistachio Ice Cream Sundaes, comes from page 54 of Sweet Scoops by Shelly Kaldunski.The original recipe for Orange-Cardamom Ice Cream calls for 2 cups of heavy cream plus 1 1/2 cups of wholly milk. Yum !
But, in on-key Recipe ReDux vogue of making things a little healthy, even, evenly delicious, I drew inhalation from my favorite lemon ice cream recipe, and swapped the big cream for lactose free half-and-half and the whole milk for almond milk, both to make it less thermal AND more easily digestible, then topped the whole shebang off with my favorite fresh, seasonal worker Cara Cara Oranges, plus some delectable pistachio nuts, because…
I just won 100 days worth of pistachio nuts from the American Pistachio Growers for my award winning Lemony Kale, Pasta, and Pistachio Salad .

so, you see…
possibly, despite the cold, windy, showery winter weather, this very is a fabulous time to be enjoying an ice cream ice-cream sundae .
But, I ’ ll leave it to you to try the recipe, and decide if I actually have gone brainsick, or possibly I ’ m barely absolutely brilliant ! ????
