Hello beautiful friends,

Can you believe we are already in July? Time is flying by! It probably comes as no surprise that when I heard the sound of the ice-cream truck it motivated me to whip up some ‘healthy’ alternatives for my girls.

That’s why I’m so excited to share today’s recipe! The girls and I got to work this morning in the kitchen and after much debate we settled on creamy mango popsicles dipped in chocolate.

Here’s the best part — these frozen treats of yumminess can be turned into ice-cream, or forget freezing and eat as pudding. Get ready to take a blissful bite of summer.

I like to make a double batch of these fruit popsicles and keep them for super hot days (come on Seattle), or, whenever the sweet tooth craving kicks in.

If you are feeling decadent whip up some of the chocolate dip I’ve included. Drizzle, dip or stir into the pudding mix, then decorate your fruit popsicles with nuts, hemp seeds, dried berries or coconut flakes. Yum!
