Cool and Refreshing – healthy desserts!

Dear Friends,

If you like dessert, then you are in for a treat with this month’s newsletter. I have a couple of ice cream recipes for you below. They are from the website ChocolateCoveredKatie, The Healthy Dessert Blog.

I have referred to her website a number of times over the years. Here is what I like about Katie’s recipes:

1) They are simple and easy to make.

2) They are super-adaptable. Depending on your dietary needs – you can swap out the kind of milk or sweetener, etc. The recipes still turn out.

3) And they actually taste good! You would never know the recipes are healthy!

Katie has regular meal recipes too. Like this vegan quiche which is my new favorite. I have tried other vegan quiche recipes but this one is a winner.

You can also check out her book, Chocolate Covered Katie: Over 80 Delicious Recipes That Are Secretly Good for You. There are recipes in the book that I like for special occasions and Holidays.

Please enjoy the recipes below and stay cool the rest of the summer!

With Best Wishes,

Shannon
