Everyday Fare With Extraordinary Flair
These Red White and Blue Popsicles are made with strawberries, blueberries, and coconut milk for the healthy version of Firecracker Popsicles or Bomb Pops! They’re patriotic, festive, and fun for Independence Day, Memorial Day, or all summer long.
Mid-June when strawberries are in peak season here, I found the most perfect looking local strawberries. I bought a quart that day and went back the next day for a flat!…
Cool down with these 12+ Ice Cream, Nice Cream, Popsicle, Frozen Yogurt, and Other Frozen Treat Recipes; there’s something to make everyone happy! One of the best thing about summer is the frozen treats, right? They make the oppressive heat and humidity bearable! Here I’m sharing just a few of my favorites. With everything from ice cream and nice cream, sorbet, fro-yo, pops, and even a couple low-carb favorites, there’s something for everyone to enjoy....
Cool and refreshing, these Roasted Plum Rosé Popsicles with Cardamom feature the intensely sweet flavor of roasted plums, rosé wine, and complex, slightly citrusy tang of cardamom. If you’re looking for the perfect way to cool down and unwind on a scorching summer day, these Roasted Plum Rosé Popsicles with Cardamom are it. Imagine yourself lounging next to a pool, book in one hand, and one of these popsicles in the other. That sounds like a darn-near perfect summer day to me....
Cinnamon and Toasted Almond Dulce de Leche Cheesecake Popsicles are rich and creamy and perfect for cooling down with on a hot day. And bonus, they’re low-carb! When the weather heats up enough to necessitate trips to the ice cream stand, I am only too happy to get out my popsicle mold....
This paleo Cherry Chocolate Chip Coffee Popsicles Recipe pairs fresh sweet cherries with dark chocolate in a creamy coffee-based popsicle. I’m not even joking when I say I could live off cherries and nothing else during their teasingly short season. (Even despite all those warnings about the collywobbles my mom gave me growing up.) Collywobbles or not, a five pound bag of cherries never lasts long in my fridge....
A while ago when my friend brought me back wood apples from Sri Lanka, she also brought me another sweet treat: pineapple! If you’ve never had Sri Lankan pineapple, it is surprisingly quite different from Hawaiian pineapple. Fresh, ripe Sri Lankan pineapple is sweeter and has a deeper pineapple flavor than Hawaiian pineapple. Sri Lankan pineapple still has the pleasant sweet/sour taste that Hawaiian pineapple has, but with less of a tart tang and more of a sweet, natural concentrated pineapple flavor....
Most people I know use umbrellas in downpours. Not me. I always say I won’t melt and shrug off the fact that I will inevitably look half-drowned after choosing not to use an umbrella; but the truth is I really can’t be bothered with the trouble (which of course is really no trouble at all) of using one (although there’s a quite large pretty black umbrella in my car at all times). I must be some kind of umbrella-phobe. Weird, right? Now heat is another story. Coupled with high humidity, when temps over 85 hit me I actually do melt....
I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but did you realize that summer is more than half over? That happened fast. Did you have a summer bucket list of things you wanted to get done? I’ve been slowly crossing little things off of mine....
Anyone else remember Swiss Mocha-flavored soft-serve growing up? It was one of my favorite flavors, and is definitely worthy of a healthier makeover in popsicle form. So recently, that’s exactly what I did. And I have a funny story about these popsicles…...
