Dessert & healthy don’t really go together, but there is no reason why they can’t! Especially during the summer months when it’s often too hot for a heavy dessert. This dessert round up is inspired by desserts that are healthy & delicious, making them perfect for summer entertaining.
Healthy Desserts
You don’t often think of chocolate mousse as being healthy, but it is when it’s made with Greek yogurt! Visit Smiling Notes for this easy chocolate mousse recipe. I love chocolate mousse- I can remember the first time I ever had it. It was at the Taste of Chicago and I was about 7 years old! My dad had to convince me that it wasn’t mousse the animal. LOL!
Raspberry Chocolate Almond Popsicles
Not all frozen desserts are healthy summer desserts, but this one is! Not only is this made with yogurt, it’s loaded with berries…and a hint of chocolate! Visit Cupcakes & Kale Chips for the recipe!
Healthy Double Chocolate Banana Brownies
These are not your typical brownies, but with bananas, applesauce & Greek yogurt they sound delicious! Visit Chocolate Salad for this recipe– these are only 142 calories each!
Skinnytaste has the BEST recipes and I’m sure this one is no different. I love fried ice cream and this sounds like an amazing alternative! Visit Skinnytaste for the Unfried Mexican Ice Cream recipe.
Honey Vanilla Summer Fruit Salad
This looks amazing! We have easy access to fresh Michigan peaches in the summertime so this Honey Vanilla Summer Fruit Salad from The Live In Kitchen is going on my short list!
Apple Nachos with Peanut Butter and Chocolate
These look so good. My nephew would go bananas over these! Visit Trial & Eater for the recipe for these apple nachos that are ready in 5 minutes!
Good news! Ice cream just got healthy. The Paleo Newbie shows us how to whip up this paleo ice cream dessert! Doesn’t this look amazing? Perfect for summer- especially with fresh picked strawberries.
These are a low calorie dessert at just 38 calories per handful of 13-14 blueberries! AND, they are made with just three ingredients! Yum.
Sally’s Baking Addiction has such great recipes and I am sure this one is no different! These maple vanilla pears are super easy and only need to bake for about 25 minutes.
If you like cookies & cream you’re going to love these skinny popsicles! Each cookies & cream pop is just 111 calories and has only 5 ingredients.
