This savory taco ice cream is created by Fork and Beans blog. The natural dessert recipe references [traditional Mexican cuisine](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chile-en-nogada-taco) and is infused with potato, bell pepper and cherry tomato ingredients that are wrapped in a corn tortilla cone.

Instead of featuring traditional ingredients, Fork and Beans blog's taco ice cream is made from a boiled potato base and is blended with non-dairy milk. Following in the footsteps of luxury restaurateurs and reputable chefs, lifestyle bloggers are embracing [savory dessert ingredients](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/quebec-blue-cheese-ice-cream) and are creating non-traditional versions of frozen treats.

This savory dessert is not only experimental but is simultaneously health-conscious -- much like most of Fork and Beans blog recips that are designed for a vegan audience.
