Sweet Tastes of Spring: 4 Recipes to Treat Yourself

By Morgan @ LifeWay

Happy Wednesday, everyone!  The end of the school year is so close, we can taste it…that’s why we thought it might be fun to give you a few recipe ideas that are perfect for the transition from school days to beach days!  These light-yet-scrumptious treats are perfect to help you cool down while the temperatures continue to heat up. (A plus: all of them involve fresh fruit!)

Watermelon Salsa (aka “Fire and Ice” Salsa)

It sounds weird at first, because salsa is traditionally salty and served with Mexican food….but seriously, this is a treat too good to pass up.  It has just a slight “kick” to it, but combined with the sweetness of the watermelon, this snack will have you addicted at first bite.

Strawberry Shortcake Shish Kabobs

Sometimes, treats that are really sweet can make you feel weighted down and tired after a few minutes.  That is not the case with these fruity and cake-y “strawberry short cakes on a stick.”  And with only 4 basic ingredients, you can spend less time in the kitchen and MORE time enjoying them around the pool or at the park!

For details, click here.

 

Lemon Bar Ice Cream Cake

Halo Top ice cream, one of the ingredients in this zesty treat, is a hot new item on the market…partly because of rumors that it’s healthier than traditional ice cream — and what’s better than enjoying your desserts guilt-free!?

Soak up the sun with no regrets!  Get the recipe here.

No-Bake Blackberry Cheesecake Cups

Aren’t these treats, well…pretty??  But don’t worry, that won’t keep you from eating them!  These blackberry cheesecakes can be made in individual cups or one large dish, but one thing is true: they will leave you wanting more!

Check out the quick and effortless recipe here!
