Raspberry Yogurt Popsicles

Posted on May 22, 2018 by Jamie H

Refreshingly cool Raspberry Yogurt Popsicles are good for you and kid approved! During the summer, my family loves popsicles. I don’t like the idea of all that sugar and dyes, though, so I make a lot of popsicles to help keep the kiddos cool. My favorite thing is to put tons of fruit into the homemade popsicles. I’ve made pure fruit popsicles that are 100% fruit. I’ve also made ones with raspberries and lemonade. We switch it up, so I’m always coming up with new ideas for homemade popsicles, and these raspberry yogurt popsicles are my latest. (Speaking of ideas–

All it takes is 3 ingredients and 5 minutes to make this delicious Carrot Craisin Salad! This is seriously the easiest salad recipe ever.

Find out how easy it is to dry roast almonds! My family loves to snack. And because we homeschool, we’re home a lot, which means there’s plenty of time for snacking. Because of this, I try to offer healthy snacks for my family, like these dry roast almonds, so at least those snacks can be packed full of vitamins instead of just junk. Almonds in general are such a great snack. They are surprisingly filling, full of fiber and protein, and a great source of nutrients. They’re full of potassium, magnesium, calcium, and vitamin E, so they’re really a great

Baked Acorn Squash

Baked Acorn Squash is an easy vegetable dish. With butter and brown sugar, it is slightly sweet, amazingly delicious and mostly healthy. I have grown acorn squash in my garden every year since we bought our house. I haven’t gotten much out of my acorn squash plants in the past. One year one of the plants disappeared. It was the year the pumpkins took over. This year my plant looks great. I am hoping to get lots more out of it. The Hardworking Husband loves acorn squash and that’s why I’ve kept planning them. When we first got married, I
