What Makes This Recipe Great

The color itself is going to make you want to make this Pitaya Bowl in your Ninja Creami soon. You might not know about Pitaya but it’s actually another name for Dragon Fruit. Most grocery stores have Pitaya in the frozen fruit section, or you can chop your own fresh one up and toss it in the freezer before making your Ninja Creami. I love to use Pitaya in smoothies and Ninja Creami’s because of its Superfood Status. this just means that it extremely nutrient dense and delivers a lot of nutrients while using less calories then other foods. It also pairs very well with other fruits.

  • Pitaya
  • Coconut Milk– make sure its not coconut cream

Pro Tip

  • My best tip is to make sure you test out your creami as much as possible. Don’t be afraid to try different buttons on the machine, it took my a few times to get comfortable with it but I promise the most delicious creations are going to come out of it if you let the machine work it’s magic!

Frequently Asked Question

Can I refreeze leftovers?

  • Yes! If there are leftovers you can flatten the top of the mixture in the container then refreeze them. But of course they will be rock solid again so you can either take it out and let sit on the counter for 15 minutes or run it back through the Ninja CREAMi on respin once.

How is the Ninja CREAMi different than a blender?

  • With a blender, even a high powered one, you need to add a decent amount of liquid for it to blend.  With the CREAMi you get super thick ice cream and sorbets that is unmatched!

Do you have to freeze the base for 24 hours?

  • The Ninja CREAMi guide says you must freeze for 24 hours but I have tried to use it after they have only frozen for 6-8 hours and it still works great just slightly less thick.
