Did you know that there are some things that you can just dump into your Ninja Creami with no extra preparation?! It’s true! Things like premade vegan pudding, Orgain protein shakes, boxed silken tofu, Laird superfood creamer, Oats Overnight, Bird’s custard, applesauce, canned peaches, canned pineapple, canned tomatoes, and even canned corn can all be frozen and made into ice cream! Of course lots of places have their reviews of the Creami up, along with their – it has to be said, sometimes derivative, not to mention complicated – recipes. Not us! Remember, we’re lazy! So we’re testing premade things that we can just dump into the bowl, shove it into the freezer, and then Creami it. (Remember ‘Will it Blend’? Think that, for the Ninja Creami. :~) ) Below are all of the things we have tried to date, along with the results!

Laird superfood creamer (the refrigerated liquid) ice cream: yes!
Recipe: Dump a pint of Laird superfood creamer into Creami container, freeze, spin on lite ice cream (this makes a soft and delicious ice cream that is very rich)
Laird Superfood Creamer ice cream (definitely soft and rich)
Affogato with Laird Superfood Creamer ice cream (so yummy!!)
Canned diced tomatoes for tomato sorbet: yes!
Recipe: Dump a can of diced tomatoes in the blender, blend smooth, pour into Creami container, freeze, spin on sorbet (you may need to spin it a couple of times)
Canned Diced Tomato Sorbet – yes! (So refreshing!)
Canned Peaches – yes!
Just open a can of peaches in juice (not in syrup), dump in the blender juice and all, and dump into your Creami pint container. Freeze and spin on sorbet setting. Delicious!
Canned Pineapple – yes!
As with the canned peaches, canned pineapple is truly a dump-and-freeze recipe. Use pineapple canned in juice, dump into a blender to liquify, and then into your Creami pint. Freeze and spin on sorbet. It’s so good! (Note that it’s really hot here right now so the pineapple sorbet is already a bit melty.)
Overnight Oats packet ice cream: yes!
We haven’t yet met an Overnight Oats flavour that we didn’t like done up with our Creami! Just add one cup (8 ounces) of plant milk of your choice, blend it, and freeze it! Yum!

Mamma Chia brand Chia Squeeze sorbet: yes!
It works, but we didn’t love it (although you might!) It has the consistency of a… hrmmm … heavy sorbet, for lack of a better description. Just dump the pouches into the container and freeze, spin on sorbet.
Apple sauce sorbet: coming soon
Regular brewed tea for slushies: no
