I like to use healthy sugar-free homemade applesauce frozen into popsicle molds to make a cold sweet-treat. It sure is delightful on a hot Texas summer’s day!

When it’s hot outside I make a cheap, healthy, frozen sweet treat. It’s a healthier version ice cream using frozen bananas & berries.

Who doesn’t love dessert? We don’t have dessert every night of course but my handsome RancherMan does have a sweet tooth. Sometimes we like light & fluffy desserts like strawberries & whipped cream.
Other times we enjoy a heavier dessert. It’s not unusual for me to have homemade brownies or even apple pie. Or depending upon how hectic the day was I might take a shortcut and make something easy like homemade chocolate pudding.
A delicious dessert need not take lots of time or effort. Heck one of our favorite desserts is strawberries & fresh whipped cream. Dessert in a flash!

I love strawberry shortcake, don’t you? Recently I wrote about making homemade strawberry shortcake dessert for my handsome RancherMan and two of our grandbabies. It was a lip-smacking dessert that looked and tasted like I’d been in the kitchen for hours.
I’ll never tell them that it was super-easy to whip it all up from scratch – even the shortcake! C’mon y’all, I’ll let ya in on how I did it.

These double chocolate banana-chunk cookies are primarily sweetened with the natural sugars of banana and honey. Fluffy, soft & chewy cookies that are bursting with chocolate flavor.

I’ve heard that pear relish is delicious but… I dunno. I mean sweet pears coupled with savory onions & bell peppers? And jalapenos? And MUSTARD? Hummmmm, I don’t know…
But I was so wrong! This pear relish is surprisingly delicious. So much so that I’ve now made and canned this recipe several times. Check it out.

A frozen watermelon daiquiri is cold, sweet refreshment on a hot summer’s day. Or leave out the rum for a watermelon smoothie that the whole family can enjoy!
