If your ice cream DOES get freezer burned, don't throw it out! I've salvaged many a carton by using it in a smoothie/shake - and amazingly you can't tell at all! The last one I made was black cherry ice cream and I threw in some frozen fruit (pineapple I think), and whatever we had in the fridge (blueberries, yogurt, orange juice or milk)....de-lish!

My husband is the only ice cream eater in the house (although I'm sure our two year old will follow his foot steps LOL!) Once it gets freezer burnt he won't eat it now I know how to save the ice cream. Thanks for the tip!
