Yes, you heard right! Free Ice Cream Maker!
I have the people at CSN stores to thank for allowing me to give away this wonderful kitchen appliance. CSN has more than 200 online stores that sell everything from cookware to childrens’ furniture such as twin beds.
And the best news is, even if you’re on a very limited diet, you can still eat ice cream! There are some great recipes for ice cream that are free of dairy, sugar, and even eggs. Here are just a few:
Strawberry Vanilla Bean Ice Cream
Another Strawberry Ice Cream
Coconut Lavender Vanilla Ice Cream
In terms of the recipes with fruit, you can easily use any kind of fruit your heart desires – peaches, mangoes, pears, raspberries, blueberries, etc. You don’t even have to use sweetener in some of these recipes because the fruit is sweet enough. I have also made vanilla ice cream with just coconut milk, real vanilla bean and honey, similar to the chocolate ice cream above. However, I only used 1 can of coconut milk for the vanilla.

I would have to try the coconut lavendar vanilla ice cream – sounds great.
Hi Sarah:
I posted the giveaway on my twitter account. Good luck with the hits!

Oh, I hope I can create enough entries. My son with autism just started the SCD, low oxalate diet and I’m hoping that we will be able to use Sarah’s menu-planner. AND…he so misses his ice cream. We used it every evening to mask his meds prior to starting this new diet.
I’ve heard awesome things about Cuisinart Icecream makers – my first flavor to try would definitely be strawberry! I’d also love to try my hand at cappuccino-flavored ice cream and gelato!
Cherry ice cream recipe please!

I would love to try homemade avocado ice cream! It sounds gross, but avocado shakes are super yummy so I think ice cream would be too!
I Facebook’ed about this contest 🙂
My dream bed from CSN Furniture Store is the Wildon Home Montecito Bed in Chestnut – amazing!

I am not sure what kind of ice cream I’d make as we’re new to the dairy-free way of life, but I would assuredly find something wonderful on your blog, right?!
I subscribe to your e-zine and am loving the free planner I received.

As a homeschooling family, we are BIG on books, so I really like the Bookcase bed for kids, especially since it has an option of a trundle underneath (a necessity in our house since we have no room for a guest room – at least this way we have extra beds)!
Posted on Facebook just now.
I told a bunch of friends. I hope they link up… or maybe I don’t. I want to win that ice cream maker! 😉
I just tweeted. BTW, yours was my first ever tweet! Whew, I think that covers all of them. Sure hoping I win!
If I won the ice cream maker I would make coconut milk ice cream. Sometimes I put tiny chocolate chips in it too. So yummy!
I would love a recipe for dairy-free, egg-free, nut-free, and gluten-free ice cream. My family has numerous allergies – and the only thing I have made (without an ice cream maker) is cherry sorbet (which was great). Thank you!
I like the Paula Deen set – pretty!

I’d like to make cookies and cream ice cream. My favorite.
I need to go get one now!!lol
I’ll be trying to make a coconut-milk based ice cream, preferably with almonds and maybe some peaches in it–no recipe yet, but I’ll see what I can find.
I tweeted & facebooked about your contest.
I love your recipes and have gotten some great tips.
I have used ice cream recipes from http://www.thespunkycoconut.com.
The furniture… well if I had the dough and a house big enough for it I’d go for the Lexington Long Cove Newport Poster Bedroom Set in Midnight. http://www.bedroomfurniture.com/Lexington-Long-Cove-Bedroom-Series-LTN1051.html
I subscribed to your blog.
I signed up for your meal planner.
I’m confused about whether each notification of what I have done to fulfill the contest rules constitutes a separate entry. Please advise. I can send each report of my completion of required tasks separately.
Thanks oodles for the opportunity to win, Holliday
I posted a link to your giveaway on my Facebook page!
Hi Sarah…I would love a vanilla or chocolate ice cream that is gluten, soy, dairy and corn free…..so you see how I would love to win this ice cream maker!
Love your blog…Keep up the good work.
Sarah….I already subscribe to your blog and enjoy it alot. Thanks for all the helpful information. Would love to try to make my own sweet treats with that ice cream maker.
Hi Sarah-
I have been trying to use Almond Milk to make ice cream, although it is much thinner than Coconut milk. Besides bananas, is there anything to do to thicken it up for a less “icy” consistency?
Here’s a link for Dairy Free, Soy Free Peanut Butter Ice Cream!

I also posted your link on Facebook, Twitter (julia6476), already belong to your newsletter, told my friends about the giveaway, and visited the furniture website. I love the Cherry Bedroom Furniture set. 🙂 http://www.bedroomfurniture.com/American-Perspective-Poster-Bedroom-Set-in-All-American-Cherry-STA3747.html
I dream of sugar-free, dairy-free, gluten-free, soy-free spumoni ice cream… Is there such a thing as sugar-free maraschino cherries or candied fruit?
I have never made homemade ice cream, but I think strawberry sounds yummy!
