Healthy Fudgsicles
The other night my husband and I were eating some oat milk fudge bars from Trader Joes. They were delicious, but I thought to myself, I can make these myself, healthier and cheaper. So I decided to develop a recipe of my own. These frozen fudge bars are sweetened with banana, and fresh dates. I added no extra sugar! I used almond coconut milk, so that they are plant based. I brought back raw cacao from our trip to Costa Rica from Two Little Monkeys Farm, which made them extra special! These healthy fudgsicles are also the easiest to make! I hope you will enjoy the recipe on a hot…

Basil Jelly
Something that I greatly enjoy is gardening. I only have a small townhome, so all of my plants must be potted, but I am currently growing basil, and I have a wonderful crop this year. My mom suggested that I make basil jelly, and shared her recipe with me. It came out delicious and I wanted to share it with you all today. This jelly is very unique and gives a wonderful flavor to toast in the morning, or in a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. It also works very nicely on a charcuterie board. Have you ever wanted to make homemade jams or jellies, and thought “that is…

Mini Pavlovas
Have you ever heard of a Pavlova before? If not, you are missing out. This is a crispy, airy, light, delicious dessert! Apparently it is a traditional Australian dessert named after Russian ballerina Anna Pavlova. Basically, it is a crispy meringue topped with whipped cream and fruit. I made it for a gathering that I had at my house and it was a huge hit. I have made a large single Pavlova before, but this time I decided to make individual Mini Pavlovas and it was much easier to eat and less messy! I hope you all will enjoy this recipe as much as I do!
