🍇🧪Day 16 of Healthy Summer Treats: TikTok Grapes with a Twist #SummerOnShorts
Today we’re making the viral frozen sour patch grapes from TikTok, but with a better-for-you twist!! After adding your lime juice, instead of sugar or Jello mix, we sprinkled our green grapes with lemonade electrolyte powder, then freeze & enjoy!! Super refreshing & perfect for replacing electrolytes on hot summer days. NOTE: I found the grapes were still a bit wet/sticky after freezing so you could totally add ANOTHER coat of electrolytes after freezing for an extra boost, b

🍫✨ Day 15 of Healthy Summer Treats: Frozen Protein S’mores #SummerOnShorts
These are SO UNDER-RATED, OMG! Don’t make these unless you’re prepared to eat the entire batch. 😂😅 Our homemade almond flour graham crackers are perfectly sweet & crunchy, paired with a snappy allulose-sweetened vegan dark chocolate layer, and a marshmallowy layer with added protein - these could be on repeat all summer long. 🍫✨ TIP: try to mix the Coco Whip as little as possible (just enough to get the protein powder mixed in) or it can deflate and get really runny. BUT e

Day 7 of Healthy Summer Treats: 🍋🍨 3-Ingredient Lemon Ice Cream #summeronshorts
INGREDIENTS: - Zest & juice of 2 lemons* - 1 can full fat coconut cream - 1/2 cup sweetener of choice (I used organic honey) NOTES: *I did try the “whole lemon” way first, but I found it too bitter and did not enjoy it. So I remade it using the zest & juice, and it was SOOOOO delicious and refreshing. This will definitely be on repeat this summer. This is fairly heavy on honey but makes for a nice soft texture. You can swap the sweetener or adjust it lower too if you want it

Day 6 of Healthy Summer Treats: 🍌🥜🍫 Frozen Banana Snicker Bars #summeronshorts
Another no bake treat that went totally #viral on TikTok & instagram last summer, and has earned a place on permanent rotation in our house (one of my kids LOVES these). 🍌🥜🍫 You will need: -ripe bananas -nut/seed butter of choice -chocolate of choice -crushed/chopped nuts/seeds of choice These are fun as 1/4 banana pieces, so it’s more like a bar, but also fun if you cut them into coins, and make bite sized ones. However you slice it, top your pieces of banana with your fa

Day 3 of Healthy Summer Treats: 🍉Watermelon Shaved Ice #SummerOnShorts
This one ingredient shave ice hack seemed so simple I almost didn’t want to include it in our healthy summer treat series BUT our watermelon’s texture was sub-par (and a bit mealy), so my kids did NOT want to eat it. And freezing it, and shaving it with a microplane, totally transformed and saved this melon. Don’t have a microplane? Or even if you do… I also tested this with my grater setting in our food processor and it worked like a charm, and was definitely a time saver to

🍋🍮 No-Bake Strawberry Lemon Cheesecake | Gluten Free Raw Vegan
Deliciously fresh, raw style vegan cheesecake. This one is cashew based - but you can totally sub macadamia nuts instead though it will slightly change the flavour. We kept it simple (we did experiment with adding coconut oil, cocao butter, and agar agar to the filling to help it set up firmer, but in the end we preferred the taste & texture of the original/simpler recipe) and it still sets well & holds its shape in the fridge. We love the extra pop of freshness that lemon ze
