Whip the eggs until thick, creamy, and foamy.

-
3
Add sugar and blend.
-
4
Add stevia and blend for another minute or two.

5
In a Vitamix or other high speed blender combine milk, cream, spinach, coconut oil, and kefir grains.
-

Start at a low setting to prevent splatter and then increase to full speed.
-
7

-
14
Pur gelatin into cream mix and whip or whisk together immediately.
-
15
Pour into your ice cream maker and follow the manufacturer's directions for freezing.

I personally own a 2 quart Cuisinart, but there are lots of great ones out there to choose from.
-
17
When the ice cream is thick, but not quite finished, add the chocolate and continue to freeze until done.
-
18
I then put the finished ice cream into insulated ice cream containers to help the ice cream freeze properly and not form ice crystals.
-
19
Freeze in the freezer for a few hours and you will have nice firm ice cream.

Another obvious variation (since this turns out gree) is to add mint leaves to the milk in the Vitamix or to add mint extract.

My son does not like mint ice cream so we did a vanilla base.
