It has been the summer of homemade ice cream around here and on the blog, and I think I may have saved the best for last. That's assuming this is the last ice cream recipe I share this summer. I was pretty sure it was going to be until I typed that just now. Alright, … Continue reading Vegan Chocolate Peanut Butter Ice Cream
Yesterday was my dad's birthday, and this year I thought it'd be fun to re-create one of his favorite ice cream flavors. Growing up, I used to love visiting the near-by ice cream stand, or whippy dip as it we called it.

It was all under the guise of a "sleepover." My … Continue reading Healthy, All-Natural “Slurpees” (no sugar added)

Also, I have a running list of new dishes and treats on the back-burner right now just waiting impatiently to be added to … Continue reading Creamy Matcha Green Tea Popsicles – Dairy-Free and Sugar-Free
Growing up, one of my favorite summertime treats from the freezer aisle were frosty cold and creamy Fudgecicles. For those who aren't familiar with Fudgecicles, they are an ultra-chocolatey popscicle that's not quite ice cream. It's more... fudgey.
