Healthy Versions of Your Favourite Summer Treats
Since it’s still full-swing summer, and in our last post we talked a lot about how you could still enjoy your summer while in school, and for me a large part of summer is the delicious food you can eat and all the wonderful fruits that are in season. With that in mind, we’d love to share our favourite healthy versions of summer treats that will keep your summer taste buds happy, while at the same time keeping your university-brain in the on switch position.

My go-to summer treat, and the downfall of every “I’m going to be healthy” decision is ICE CREAM. For people who depend on this tasty treat to cool down in the summer, here are some great, healthy alternatives to Chapman’s . If you’re looking for a really easy go-to, blend 2 frozen bananas with a tablespoon of cocoa powder and a tablespoon of honey, and voila! Ice cream. If that doesn’t tickle your fancy, check this website out for a dozen other ice-cream alternative recipes.

Popsicles might seem like a “kiddie” dessert, but you can definitely pack a mould with healthy, “grown-up” options that turn a simple dessert into a goody-loaded, decadent dessert. What better way to start that off than with popsicles jammed with “super foods”, the latest trendy health food. If superfoods aren’t your thing though, try this website for simpler versions that are still delicious (think 2 ingredients or less).

When the sun’s beating down, dehydration rises. While you should always make sure you have water on hand, it gets hard to turn down the cool quenchers that tease you from places like Starbucks, or Tims, and a dozen other coffee shops. To save money, be a little healthier, and always have a cool drink at hand, grab a thermos and head to this site for some easy, breezy, refreshing summer drinks.
Still not seeing anything you like? I leave you with this super comprehensive link where you can peruse the tasty summer treats to your heart’s desire; and, if you see me with one of those homemade drinks in hand, feel free to come over and say cheers 🙂
