Welcome to a day in my house.  This is me, desperately trying to fight the temptation to eat the whole 1/2 gallon of cookies-and-creme ice cream in the freezer.

Guys, ice cream is my crack, and when it’s in the house, I’m done for. I know, the smart thing would be to just not buy it altogether, but when you have a husband who isn’t quite committed to healthy goals like I am, well…. easier said than done, right?

Summer in and of itself just feels like it should be a party all season long, and that alone gives me a reason to make exceptions ALL.SUMMER.LONG. 

I NEED a healthy alternative to the fattening ice cream and summer treats if I’m not going to fall off the wagon.  

Solution: Healthy (& EASY!) Summer Desserts

If you’ve signed up for this torture with me and are really trying to hold on to some healthy habits during the summer, I’ve got what you need.  Easy and healthy is food love language.

Take a look below for some outstanding options for healthy summer desserts.  Make them for yourself, your kids, or for a party.  They all would work perfectly for any occasion.  You just might be able to convince your family to ditch the fattening stuff. 

Worth a college try, right?

A Few Things about the Healthy Summer Treats Below

A few things about the recipes you’ll find. Everyone has a little bit of a different definition of ‘healthy.’

Some recipes are paleo, some are clean, some are keto, some are low-calorie, low-carb or Weight Watchers.

You do what’s healthy for you! Many can be adjusted or customized to your diet by substituting ingredients or leaving them out altogether.

Some are great for kids (like ice pops!). Others are perfect to bring to a BBQ or summer get-together. Others are packed with enough protein to be an actual meal replacement.

But my favorite part about them all? They are cool and refreshing and NO-BAKE! PERFECT for summer!

Ok, go make your favorite!
