Sweet Cherry Yogurt Pops

Fresh, sweet cherries and creamy yogurt are all you need to make one healthy and 

delicious frozen treat that the whole family will love!

Did you know that July is National Ice Cream Month? Break out those ice cream makers my friends, and let's get going! I remember my aunt and uncle having one of those old fashioned giant hand crank machines, the ones that you put the ice and salt in. You'd have to sit there and crank and crank and turn and turn for what seemed like hours to make that ice cream! But in the end it was so worth it to get that fresh, homemade deliciousness. I absolutely loved it and it was a highlight of many childhood summers.

Fast forward many years (many, MANY years), and now I have a fancy ice cream maker that does all the turning for me. No ice needed. No hand cranking. I kind of miss that old machine, but on the other hand it's way easier doing it this way and much quicker! I make my own ice cream quite often during the summer, but I also love making other frozen treats, like frozen yogurt and popsicles. I have a few different popsicle molds and love trying different combinations from sweet to fruity to chocolaty and even sometimes spicy. This week I took some delicious, fresh sweet cherries and combined them with thick and creamy Greek yogurt and got the best ever Sweet Cherry Yogurt Pops.

Strawberry Lime Pops

Beat the heat this summer with these simple, fresh, and delicious Strawberry Lime Pops!

Hot and humid summer days call for cold and refreshing snacks. Frozen treats to be exact. And what's even better is when those treats are homemade, like these deliciously fruity strawberry lime pops. Made with just a few simple ingredients, you can't go wrong. No added preservatives, artificial flavors, corn syrups, etc. Just real fruit and a little bit of sugar. That's it. 

These pops are so simple to make - whip up a quick batch of simple syrup, then pop the cooled mixture into a blender with some sliced, fresh strawberries and the juice of a couple fresh limes. Blend it well, then add it to your popsicle mold. Freeze for a few hours and voila! Real strawberry lime pops made with fresh summer fruits. What's better than that?

Easy Strawberry Frozen Yogurt {Frozen Month}

Since August is frozen month for my Blogger Food Challenge group I've really upped my game in the frozen department. From creating new ice cream recipes to frozen pies, I've had a blast!

This strawberry frozen yogurt is super simple to make, plus it's amazingly delicious. My son and I were taste testing the strawberry mixture before it was turned frozen and I swear we could have drank the whole bowl!! LOL

Frozen Peanut Butter Pie {Frozen Month}

It was my daddy's birthday this past weekend and I wanted to make him something special for dessert. He doesn't eat a lot of sweets anymore, so I wanted to transform one of my recipes into something with fewer fat and calories. 

Enter my frozen peanut butter pie. It is perfect for a summer birthday treat. Especially on a hot day!
