Oh wow, where did this week go lovelies? I am just getting home from a full day of friends and activities when I realized I hadn't uploaded my Fitness Friday post for today. Oops! I'm sorry about that, I meant to upload this morning. My fault, no excuses!
Happy Fitness Friday, Lovelies! Today I wanted to share with you my favorite trades for treats on a hot summer night! You know when you are craving that sugary and sweet treat to quench the thirst of a busy day or just something to relax after a day in the sun but don't want to splurge on sugar loaded ice cream or other desserts, yes? Well, here are a few things I have started as trades for these occurrences.
Recipe 1: Take a cup of raspberries and 70% dark chocolate chips. Take a chocolate chip and place it in the center of each raspberry then place them in the freezer in a cup, bowl, bag, tray, basically however you want to store them.
Recipe 2: If this recipe were a beauty product it would be sold on high street and you all know I am not one to endorse things like that but I can't resist because this next treat is so delicious. My grandma and I make ice creams in the summer and the great thing is you can control what goes into it. So if you have the means and motivation, go out and buy and ice cream maker and blend together a delicious blueberry ice cream. Just remember to make the smart switches in ingredients for it to really be healthy.
Recipe 3: This is the simplest of them all but my ABSOLUTE favorite! Buy a giant watermelon and cut it up into slices. Then put them in bags and put into the fridge and eat when you get that sweet tooth at midnight. (: I love love love this. It is so refreshing and sweet and the perfect end to a summer day!
Thanks for reading! Tune in Monday for a new post and Wednesday for a vlog. I apologize for the lack of a post on Monday but I got a stomach bug and was pretty much down and out for the count on Monday and by the time I got around to it it was Wednesday but something will be up this Monday for sure! And the lack of vlogs was because I had uploaded 4 the week before!
Thanks,
XOXO,
Gretchen
