Homemade Juiced Juice

Homemade Juiced Juice by K. Garner

Because of oxidation, juice is at its peak immediately after you've extracted it. If you have a juicer, use it because the potency of the vitamins contained therein is way better than bottled juices.

Strawberry Ice Cream

Strawberry Ice Cream by K. Garner

More like gelato because there is little cream in it. It really highlights the strawberries. You may reduce sugar if your strawberries are sweet already.

Open Faced Peach Mango Cobbler w/Crystallized Ginger

Open Faced Peach Mango Cobbler w/Crystallized Ginger by Smokinhotchef

Peaches and mangoes are wonderful and bright with natural, juicy sweetness, unmatched by many. This cobbler is a little more figure friendly in that there is only one crust as opposed to the traditional two. Ginger makes a notable appearance in this recipe for a natural spiciness and the luxury of being one of the super spices and…

Apple Walnut Muffins

Apple Walnut Muffins by Carolinaheartstrings

We love muffins at our house and I make a batch every two weeks or so. Nothing better for a quick snack or for breakfast with yogurt. This time of year there is so much wonderful fruit available and I had some great apples on hand so I decided to make a muffin using one of my favorite fruits. I replaced the canola oil in the recipe…

My Skinny McCafé Strawberry Shake

My Skinny McCafé Strawberry Shake by Skinny Kitchen with Nancy Fox

Take creamy fat-free ice cream and milk, add loads of luscious strawberries and such and the results are pure deliciousness! It’s so flavorful, it doesn’t need to be topped off with whipped cream and a cherry like many choose to do at McDonald’s. Their shake is not even made with real strawberries! McDonald’s uses a strawberry…

Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter Bananas

Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter Bananas by Kristy O'Connor

I found a similar off of a Pinterest post. It looked so easy on the post, but it proved to be way more difficult trying it for the first time. I think the key really is the thickness of the chocolate, and mine was too thick… I know too much chocolate, NO WAY… but I think in this case, less is more. To view this recipe in more…

Giggling Gourmet's 'Camp Dessert On the Fly'

Giggling Gourmet's 'Camp Dessert On the Fly' by Giggling Gourmet

Here is something very quick, healthy and all to easy to fix up as a sweet dessert or snack dish. Use this when we are camping and backpacking as a nice capper to a day of hiking and the welcoming of a starry sky! Also works just fine when sitting at home as well and you want something sweet and still lean towards healthy food!

Mom's Peach Cobbler

Mom's Peach Cobbler by Jaime Collins

This is not super sweet. The corners of the "crust" are chewy and my favorite part. It is really good served hot with vanilla ice cream or cold by itself.

Mincemeat Cookies ~ The Old Fashioned Way

Mincemeat Cookies ~ The Old Fashioned Way by Amos Miller

I have always loved mincemeat - pie with vanilla ice cream or cookies and cocoa. This is how we make them, except here I will substitute Borden's Nonesuch Mincemeat, or Robertson's (preferred) in a jar instead of homemade mincemeat. You can substitute your favorite shortening (vegetable works great) while I will use rendered leaf…
