I don't know about you, but we have been going through the fresh berries around our house like crazy! Between the three of us, we have been eating pints of blueberries, blackberries, and strawberries by the truckload it seems! Parks will sit and eat an entire pint of any given berry if I would let him which is maybe a little excessive, but at least it's fruit and not a unhealthy snack instead! Summertime blueberries are the sweetest and they are perfect for making my healthy vanilla chia blueberry crumble bars!
Okay so I just realized that all of my last recipes have been all about fruit. I guess that's because the heat index in Houston has been 104 degrees lately and fruit is my favorite snack of choice when it is hot outside! The fruit that is produced at this time of year is one of summer's greatest qualities if you ask me, and they just so happen to be all of my favorites! Right now I'm all about sweet cherries and have been eating them in my smoothies, plain-jane by themselves, and even in popsicles! My cherry and vanilla yogurt granola pops are healthy and delicious and, the best part, they are perfectly suitable for breakfast!
Hallelujah it's Friday! This week has been dragging on and I have been waiting for today since Monday it feels like! I was out of town last weekend, so I am beyond excited to spend thia weekend with my guys. We have a pumpkin party that we are going to where there is a pumpkin recipe contest. I am pretty pumped about getting to make my famous pumpkin bars, as well as a new pumpkin dip that I am testing out too! Other than that, we have a whole lot of chilling on the agenda. I am about to get super busy with a new project that I can't wait to share with you so this will be my last weekend for a while not working. I plan on making pumpkiny things, a big batch of soup, and these super easy chocolate mousse cups and you should too!
