I just received a frozen popsicle maker, so I am about to embark on a popsicle adventure! Summer will, no doubt, present it's fair share of challenges in the food department, so I though if people would submit ideas for chilled/frozen/cool food recipes, that would help us all stay on the right track! I am going to try and come up with a frozen Gazpacho popsicle...now doesn't that sound awesome? I am so tired of the same old - same old, and this is my first summer after WLS, so I want to see what people can come up with that will 1. Keep us fed! 2. Keep us from getting bored! 3. Keep us on track! So please, if you have ideas/recipes, please share!!! Thanks to all who participate, this should be fun!

I'm going to splurge on a new popsicle mold this summer. I make my own. I find that the summer fruits when in season can be pureed and set in a mold as is since they tend to be sweet enough on their own. Occasionally I may blend some greek yogurt for cream-sicles or switch it up and add whole berries to a puree to set. Like pureed kiwi with pitted and halved cherries. It looks pretty and taste great!

The best little gadget I've invested in is the dessert Bullet. It's the coolest thing ever! You just put fresh frozen fruit in it and it comes out ice cream consistency. You don't have to add anything else to it if you Don't want to. My daughter likes to freeze yogurt cubes in the ice tray and adds it to the fruit (and of course chocolate chips ect..) I don't add anything And it's perfect!!! Highly recommended:)

I have a terrible sweet tooth. O just had to find healthy sweet treats for me. I like my pineapple and coconut sorbet. I use frozen pineapples and add it to greek yogurt with some unsweetened coconut flakes,raw honey and sometimes vanilla. I put it in my Nutribullet and place in the freezer for a few. It's very good. I also freeze bananas and add some liquid and blend.That is my banana ice cream.
