Sweet strawberries, flavorful cherries, juicy peaches, and so much more! Summer is the season to really embrace fruit at its peak. While nature’s candy tastes fabulous on its own, there are a multitude of ways to enjoy them from using them to make easy ice pops or baking them in a mouthwatering cobbler. Try each of these recipes before the season is over!
If you’ve never had a tomato pie before, you are missing out! Tomato pie is chock full of fruity (yes, it is a fruit) and cheese goodness. You may not want to share any of it, it is that good.
Stay cool in the hot weather with flavors like peach-strawberry-yogurt, minty watermelon, and blackberry lemon. It’s a great way to stay hydrated and get in a lot of vitamins. Homemade popsicles are great for kids since you can keep out any processed sugar.
