Healthy 4th of July Yogurt Bites
Cold and creamy? Sign me up!! These yogurt bites are not only sweet and cold, but bite size! Not to mention about the easiest thing in the world to make, which if you are anything like me that is key.
Just make sure you plan ahead a bit for this one, as they need to freeze for 2 hours before they can be eaten! Throw them together in the morning so they will be ready for your afternoon cookout!
Paleo Almond Butter Blondies
Brownies might be one of my biggest weaknesses. Gooey and deliciously chocolaty in every bite, these almond butter blondies are not only heathier for you than the box version, but the almond butter kicks the chocolate up a notch.
