If you let summer end without making these creamy peach pops, then you didn’t fully live this summer. Peach popsicles are a great summer dessert for the entire family to enjoy. They utilize fresh peaches, which have a lovely natural sweetness and subtle tartness. Just make sure the peaches are not overripe, or else you may have some questionably flavored peach pops. Think of these like healthier versions of creamsicles, in that they are free of dyes, added sugars, and preservatives.

The homemade almond milk is the creamy element, so make sure that you have that prepped and ready to go before you start blending the peaches. You’ll also need to acquire popsicle molds if you don’t already own them. You may not know which molds to get, but we encourage you to buy the silicone molds. Some of these molds already have the included tops so that you do not have to purchase popsicle sticks. Plus, these molds do not crack when you try to remove the peach pops from them. Just run them under a little warm water and they’ll pop right out!

If you want to get a little fancy, feel free to add some fresh peach slices to the popsicle molds. That will add another level of flavor and texture to these already delicious peach pops.

Time is precious, no matter if you are a busy parent, grandparent, single adult, or young college student with pressing deadlines.

That’s because there is this notion that making a healthy dish requires a great deal of your time. Quite the opposite! There are many healthy meals that you can make in 15 minutes or less, just like this peach tomato basil salad.

This salad bursts with flavor and comes together in just 10 minutes. It is everything you want form a salad as well: juicy, acidic, sweet, herbaceous, and so much more. It’s perfect to enjoy as a refreshing, light lunch option, or dinner side. Because of how easy and quick it is to make, there is no excuse for you not to make it. Plus, the ingredients should make you want to gobble up this salad quicker than you can make it. The juicy, acidic tomatoes pair beautifully with the sweet peaches and aromatic basil. Toss everything together in a quick and easy dressing and you are ready to eat.

As a quick note, you want the peaches to be ripe, but not too ripe. If they are mushy, they can have an off-putting flavor and texture. Perfectly ripe peaches still retain some firmness and a hint of tartness, which beautifully complements the slightly sweet and acidic tomatoes. The sweet peaches also add a refreshing sweetness that balances the acidic dressing. And as a final note, the thinly sliced jalapeños are optional, but they bring a lovely heat to the sweetly tart salad.

Before summer comes to an end, do yourself a favor and make this salad. It features one of summer’s most iconic produce items: the mighty watermelon. It is juicy, refreshing, sweet, and crispy. Just make sure that you use the watermelon before it gets too ripe and soft. You want crisp cubes for this salad! Plus, an overripe watermelon can have an unpleasant flavor, which will not go well with the blueberries, mint, and vinaigrette.

This is actually a great salad to make if you have leftover watermelon that you do not want to enjoy on its own. Perhaps you had a party and cut up an entire watermelon, but half of it went uneaten. That’s perfect because this recipe calls for eight cups of watermelon. You can choose to use less if you want to make a smaller salad. Add in the blueberries and freshly chopped mint and you are in business. In fact, you could enjoy that trio without dressing and be perfectly content, but the apple cider vinaigrette adds a savory element that makes this feel more like lunch and less like a breakfast side.

Don’t have blueberries? You can opt to use blackberries, or even strawberries, if you have them on hand. There is just a special relationship between mint and blueberries. It’s a combo that just seems to work over and over again. Let us know if you agree in the comments!

Get ready to eat just about every color of the rainbow with these raw vegan collard wraps. They are quick and easy to make and pack one of the biggest nutritional punches you’ll ever enjoy. The wraps include shredded purple cabbage, carrots, red bell pepper, sliced avocado, and alfalfa sprouts, and a delicious tahini-based dressing that ties everything together. Feel free to swap out ingredients for others that you either have in your fridge, or ones that you enjoy better. Just make sure that the ingredients you use are cleanse-approved, provided you are cleansing.

The trick for wraps is rolling them without breaking the collard green leaves. In order to roll the collard leaves easily, remove the thick stems. Not only does this allow for even rolling, but it also gets rid of a bitter, unpleasant, fibrous bite. To do this, simply use your knife to cut away the thick stem at the bottom of the leaf. You can also shave off the back part of the stem that runs slightly up the leaf, creating a flatter surface for rolling.

Now if rolling the leaves proves too difficult, you can always turn these wraps into tacos. That said, they are much easier to eat as wraps; not to mention, a lot less messy. The choice is yours and we don’t judge over here. The important thing is that you are making a great decision (and a healthy one at that) to enjoy this recipe as your next entree!

Fresh peaches, sweetener, some lemon juice, and a jar…that’s all you need for this beautiful summer creation. This peach jam contains absolutely no preservatives or other chemical ingredients that you can’t pronounce, all of which are in store bought jams. You can gather as many peaches as you can and make a large batch, dividing it into smaller jars that you freeze and later defrost to enjoy throughout the year. Peaches don’t just have to be a summertime fruit to enjoy now that you have this recipe!

Maybe you are fortunate to have a peach tree in your yard. Perhaps you have a connection with a local farmer who has a plethora of peaches that he can’t get rid of fast enough. Whatever your peach source, guard it with your life! Obviously, you can enjoy peaches raw, but they can start to turn on you quickly. To prevent the fruit from going bad, you can make this simple peach jam. Peaches contain a good amount of sweetness, so you don’t need to add too much agave, but you can always adjust the amount based on the sweetness level of the jam.

The reason that you add lemons to the jam is because they contain natural pectin. This will help set the peach jam into the thick consistency that you know and love. Squeeze some fresh lemon juice and consider adding a little lemon zest for added flavor. For the peaches, just wash them, remove the pit, and chop them into smaller pieces. If your peaches do not have any bruises, feel free to leave the peel on. That said, you can always peel your peaches prior to making this jam. We hope you love it as much as we do!

When the sun is shining, you need a refreshing beverage, in addition to your water of course. You need to have water on you all day during these hot summer days, but you can enhance your hydration efforts, while delivering some much needed nutrients and electrolytes to your body, with this peach mango agua fresca. What is an agua fresca, you ask? The literal translation means “fresh water,” and it is a light, non-alcoholic beverage popular in Mexico and Central America.

Traditionally, an agua fresca blends fresh fruit with water and some sort of sweetener, typically a lot of sugar, and maybe a hint of lime juice, depending on the recipe. What separates this agua fresca recipe from the others is that it does not contain an entire bucket of sugar. The natural sweetness from the peaches is all you need, but you can add the optional agave nectar if the beverage is not sweet enough for your liking. You may also prefer the agave nectar if the lime you use has a little extra zing or zest to it, meaning it is tarter than you expect.

Unlike other juicing recipes, this one does not require a juicer. Blend everything together in a blender until it is very smooth and you no longer see any bits of peach or ginger. To serve, you have to pour the mixture through a cheesecloth or nut milk bag to avoid taking large gulps of peachy ginger pulp.

Whether you asked for a beet recipe or not, we are here to provide an excellent one! Beets can be quite daunting, from the flavor to their ability to stain anything, including your fingers. How do you get past their earthy flavor? That is the simple part: you pair them with sweeter ingredients. In fact, one of the most classic juice combinations is the ABC, or CAB, depending on how you choose to arrange your letters. That is the combination of apples, beets, and carrots. Together, those three ingredients create a beautifully balanced juice.

This recipe is similar, but it calls for strawberries, which bring a lively, sweetly tart flavor to the party. Plus, strawberries provide lots of vitamin C and beneficial antioxidant compounds. In addition to being low in calories and carbs, they also contain fiber and potassium. Beets are also rich in vitamin C, fiber, and potassium, but they are also rich in dietary nitrates, which the body converts to nitric oxide. Nitric oxide is a vasodilator, which helps widen blood vessels, a process that could potentially reduce blood pressure and improve blood flow to muscles. The latter effect would primarily be beneficial for exercise performance and cardiovascular health.

Don’t worry, we did not forget about the carrots. These powerful orange root veggies provide lots of vitamin A, which has been linked to benefitting eye and skin health. Other studies confirm that vitamin A may aid digestion and offer protection against certain types of cancer. Now, what are you waiting for? Let’s make the smoothie and enjoy some deliciousness and beneficial nutrients!

There is nothing wrong with slicing up a peach and enjoying it as a snack. You can freeze the slices and add them to smoothies or add fresh peaches to summer fruit salads. All of that sounds perfect, but sometimes you have to think outside the box to celebrate the majestic peach during the height of its season. When you roast peaches, though, the natural sugars caramelize to create a delightful treat that surprises the taste buds in the best way possible. This is truly a way to transform a beautiful fruit into a warm, healthy dessert that everyone can enjoy.

If you have never experienced the wonder of roasted peaches, you are in for a real treat. The flavor seems to intensify with each bite, delivering a sweet and almost savory dessert. You can serve them on their own or with a fresh scoop of vegan ice cream. The refreshing chill of a fresh scoop of ice cream is the perfect match for the succulent roasted peach that you serve warm. If you are not a dessert person, consider serving roasted peaches as a breakfast or brunch side. In fact, they make quite an elegant addition to your breakfast or brunch spread.

Roasting peaches is a very straightforward process that you will surely master the first time you make the recipe. Once you do it, you will want to make the recipe again and again, each time putting your own flavor or spin on the dish. Like anything, practice makes perfect, but you can make this dish whether you are master chef or novice cook. Just make sure you do one thing for us: enjoy this recipe!

A salad doesn’t have to have a long list of ingredients in order for it to be delicious. This simple cucumber apple salad contains exactly what the name says: cucumbers and apples. Toss the apple and cucumber cubes with a simple apple cider vinegar dressing and you are in business. It’s a great, light summer salad that you can serve at room temperature or chilled. Although we used Granny Smith apples, feel free to use whichever apple variety you enjoy. If you prefer a juicier texture and sweeter flavor from your apple, consider using Fuji or Honeycrisp varieties. If you strive for contrasting colors, use Red Delicious or Pink Lady apples.

You can never go wrong with a good combination, and that is exactly the case for cucumbers and apple. Ideally, try to dice the apple and cucumber into the same size cubes for uniformity and ease of enjoyment. Plus, cutting them the same size will create even texture throughout the salad. Pour the dressing over the cucumber and apple cubes and let it sit for about 10 to 15 minutes, so that the flavors can get to know each other. That also gives the apples and cucumbers time to absorb the dressing, which is highly addictive and refreshing. We actually suggest that you keep all of the ingredients to this salad with you at all times because it

During the summer months, melons are the freshest they will ever be, no matter if it is a watermelon, cantaloupe, or honeydew. The honeydew, and other melons, have a rich water content, aiding your hydration efforts during those hot summer days. Most melons are over 90% water and in the case of honeydew, it also offers iron, calcium, zinc, copper, selenium, manganese, fiber, vitamin A, lutein, folate, and beneficial fatty acids.

Honeydew isn’t the only hydrating ingredient in this smooth. Cucumber also brings with it a boatload of water and other integral nutrients that contribute to healthy bodily function. It provides vitamin K, vitamin C, and other antioxidant compounds. The chia seeds offer beneficial omega-3 fatty acids that work to enhance brain, gut, and heart health. We don’t just want to bore you with a long list of nutritional benefits, though. Ultimately, this smoothie is about the incredibly refreshing flavor!

Because this smoothie contains honeydew and banana, you probably do not need to add the maple syrup. That is entirely up to you, but consider omitting it first, taste the smoothie, and add the maple syrup if you really crave a sweeter flavor profile. The spinach is also optional, but adds more nutrients. You don’t have to worry about that leafy green ruining the flavor of the smoothie at all. You can’t even taste it! As long as you have a sweet and scrumptious honeydew, that’ll be the primary flavor you taste when you enjoy this smoothie.
