I was craving an hot weather exam-stress sweet treat, but really didn’t want to go over on calories or sugar or fat with any chocolatey goodness, so I made myself these beautiful delicate sweet treats instead- SO GOOD. I felt like a goddess eating them they looked so magical. This is a good treat to eat when your friends all order huge ice cream sundaes and you are watching out for bikini season. THEY’LL be the ones jealous of how pretty your food is.
I used:
Zest and juice of two limes
Zest and juice of one lemon
Three stevia packets
Water, how much depends on taste (depending on how strong you like your limes)
Edible flowers - available in any salad section at the grocery store.
Mix it all together! It makes about 6 ^ that sized popsicles.
Some variation ideas that could taste even better, could be substituting flavored coconut water for the water, fruit juice, flavored seltzer, or even vanilla almond milk or something similar. Happy summer!

Coconut and almond milk taste way better than normal milk. This morning I made a chai milkshake and it was delicious! I blended a cup of coconut milk, nutmeg, one date and natvia (very similar to stevia). The coconut milk I use is from the brand 'so delicious', the name speaks for itself and for afternoon tea I made homemade nutella (Rawtella) with hazelnuts, cacao, dates, natvia, macadamia oil, coconut oil and vanilla! Good luck on loosing weight, you can do it :) xxxx

YUM everyone go try this recipe! :) I actually am not trying to lose weight, I just have a really restrictive diet, but thank you!

What summer sweet treat are you guys eating right now? Comment your dessert!

:) I made myself a almond milk ice cream sundae with cacao nibs, sliced almonds, stevia and frozen strawberries. YUM!

Your blog is a godsend and you are a legend. You haven't got another blog for non-dessert healthy food recipes by any chance?

Unfortunatly, I am a 16 year old sophmore at a prep school and hardly have any time for extra blogs, but I’ll let you know If I start one! I’m glad to know someone else finds these recipes useful, tell your friends! A website I get some of my best ideas from is http://www.dietdessertndogs.com/ so check them out for more meal type cooking. :)

I prefer to use coconut water ice cubes for the flavor and added electrolytes.* Apple: my apple juice is fresh pressed - use apple cider from the store - the fresher the better. Apple juice sub: if you have a Vitamix you may add in 1/2 cup chopped apple + 1/3 cup water in place of the apple juice. Another sub would be 1/2 cup green grapes + 1/4 cup water. Pear would work too.Add in a more layers too!

My skinny Breakfast this hot May morning :)

Volume Ice Cream
(Makes 1 huge serving)
1/4 tsp pure vanilla extract
1/16 tsp salt (trust me)
sweetener (such as 1-2 stevia packets or 1-2 tbsp sugar)
1 cup almond milk (I used unsweetened Silk. See below for substitution notes.)
optional: add-ins such as fruit, peanut butter, or extracts
Mix the ingredients together in 1 or 2 shallow plastic containers. Freeze. (You could also use an ice cube tray.) Once frozen, pop the blocks out of the container (I thaw for 30 seconds in the microwave first) and blend in your Vita-Mix. (If you don’t have a vita-mix, you’ll probably have to thaw longer, but you can still get a yummy ice milk.)
View Nutritional Information
This ice cream—when made with almond milk—has a very light texture (perfect for summer). For a creamier texture that’s more like real ice cream, try using at least 1/4c canned coconut milk (or maybe even creamer?). You can, of course, also sub other non-dairy milks for the almond. But if you do this, play around with the amount of vanilla extract, sweetener, and add-ins. (For example, an already-sweetened milk will probably need less added sweetener.) To make it look like real ice cream, scoop out with an ice-cream scoop.
