Banana Orange Pops

Go out and buy your BPA free popsicle molds!  I’m bringing you a popsicle recipe; Banana Orange to be precise!   Nothing is better on a warm afternoon than a popsicle!  Even better, when you make your own popsicles, you can use way less sugar or an unrefined sugar.  Homemade pops are much healthier than store bought.  Plus, making them is fun!  And let’s not forget easy. This popsicle...

Dairy Free and Vegan Chocolate Ice Cream

Many moons ago I was given an ice cream maker.  At the time I did not know what I would do with it.  Little did I know that several years after that, I would be going milk free.  And lo and behold, the ice cream maker came in handy.  I am glad I kept it all those years. I do not make ice cream all that often.  I honestly do not miss it much.  But it is so easy and simple and makes for a...

Oreo Ice Cream Dessert

Today’s recipe was originally posted by me as a guest post at Mom’s Test Kitchen.  For that post I was looking for something that could be made “regular” or “allergy free.”  I settled on Oreo Ice Cream Dessert.

Creamy Dreamy Chocolate Peppermint Mousse

Avocados.  Nature’s creamy fruit.  Have you heard that?  I never had an avocado until I gave up milk.  And boy was I missing something!  Everyone should be enjoying this fruit.  I started out eating it as guacamole and loved it so much I made it nearly weekly at first. But I have since tapered off.  I guess there is such a thing as too much of a good thing. But here is a super cool way...

Frozen Chocolate Bananas

Fall might be here, but that does not mean that frozen treats have to go by the wayside.   And they can be healthy too!  These frozen bananas covered in chocolate and crushed cereal are a perfect after school snack or even morning breakfast treat.   I have seen a version of these pre-made in a store, but making them yourself would be so much more affordable.  And it is so easy.  It only...

Strawberry Surprise Popsicles

Dairy free frozen treats are expensive.  Add in the soy free factor and the price goes up even a little more.  I can count the number of times on one hand I purchased ready-made frozen treats, even though I left dairy behind two years ago. Making homemade popsicles is super easy and inexpensive.  It is worth it to go out and buy popsicle molds, even for people who are not on an allergy free...
