Yogurt ParfaitHappy Memorial Day! 🇺🇸 Ready for an easy red, white, and BLUEberry meal idea? If you’re tired of the same old breakfasts + snack ideas, try this creamy calcium & protein rich yogurt parfait! Nutritious + packed with antioxidants, it’s a favorite with my 6&3 year olds and comes together in minutes!
Berry ‘N’ Yogurt PopsiclesThese RED, WHITE, and BLUEberry popsicles are a great snacktivity to make with the kids, and also a healthy treat for the Fourth of July! They can be made dairy free (depending on the yogurt used), and are filled with clean, natural good-for-you ingredients. Perfect for those warm summer days!
Watermelon PopsSummer is almost here and we’re rounding up our favorite warm weather recipes. We leveled up out refreshing watermelon with Memorial Day/Fourth of July vibes. My kids find every food is more fun on a pop stick and I love that their hands stay mess free.
Fireworks Chocolate BarkShort on time but still want a festive treat this Memorial Day or Fourth of July? I got you. Just melt some white chocolate, add in plant based blue and red, and swirl together. We added in some dye free candies and stars to make it extra festive.
Fruit ConesReady for an easy patriotic treat? These warm weather treats are a great alternative to ice cream when you want something refreshing but without the sugar crash. 🍦 Filled with fresh berries and Greek yogurt, this snack is packed with protein, healthy fat, and fiber to keep your kids’ bellies satisfied for longer. It’s also a great snack activity for the kids to dip their cones in chocolate and decorate with sprinkles. A win for both mom and child!
Patriotic Banana PopsLet’s make red, white, and blueberry banana pops for Memorial Day! Did you know that when frozen, bananas become creamy like ice cream? These pops are a healthy way to sneak in a fruit and couldn’t be easier to make. They’re also a great way to use up those bananas that have been sitting on your counter all week!
Yogurt-Frosted Watermelon “Cake”This sweet + refreshing no-bake watermelon "cake" is a fun new take on a summery dessert. Frosted with a a tangy + sweet yogurt topping and covered in berries, this dessert is pleasing to even the pickiest of eaters (aka my toddler son!). We've served this for birthdays, the Fourth of July, and Memorial Day Weekend. Dress it up with any colored sprinkles you want (we use natural dye-free ones) and make it match the theme you want for any occasion!
Maple Smash Cake with Yogurt FrostingInspired by @yummytoddlerfood, we made this patriotic maple cake with yogurt frosting for my son’s first birthday cake smash, but it was so delicious that I now make it for special occasions and holidays. Made with simple clean ingredients, this cake can be made dairy-free (sub in coconut milk yogurt), and always yields a moist, deliciously sweet cake.
