Mini Chocolate Covered Ice Cream Sandwiches

You didn’t think I’ve forgotten about dessert for the 4th of July, did you? To go along with the Mini Sloppy Joes from my last post, I made Mini Chocolate Covered Ice Cream Sandwiches. Yup, I’ve got a mini food fest going on.
Inspired by San Francisco’s It’s-It, I made a vegan version of their iconic ice cream sandwich – a scoop of vanilla ice cream sandwiched between two old-fashioned oatmeal cookies and then dipped in dark chocolate.

There’s nothing better than incorporating seasonal berries into summertime desserts. From shortcakes to sugared berries with whipped cream, they truly make a fantastic option for the post-dinner sweet tooth.
Spiced Carrots
Now that Jack is doing P90X, he must make some healthy choices on the show. Here is the recipe: Spiced Carrots Ingredients 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for the pan 1 pound carrots, thinly sliced 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice, plus lime wedges for serving Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander 1/4 teaspoon ground cumin Pinch of ground cinnamon 1/4 cup sliced almonds Directions Preheat the broiler. Lightly oil the broiler pan. Toss the carrots with 1 tablespoon olive oil in a bowl, then spread out on one side of the pan. Broil until the carrots begin to soften, 2 to 3 minutes. (more time if your baking them) Whisk the remaining 1 tablespoon each olive oil and lime juice, the coriander, cumin, cinnamon and almonds in a bowl. Add the carrots and toss to combine; season with salt and pepper. toast carrots/almonds for 1-2 more minutes in oven. serve the carrots as a side dish.
Blueberry Crisp

There is nothing better than a blueberry crisp recipe in the summertime. This old fashion recipe is a delicious way to get these incredibly nutritious berries into your diet, such as Vitamin C, Fiber, Manganese and Anti-oxidants. Ripe, fresh blueberries are perfect for this dish, though frozen berries will also work. But keep them frozen, and bake the crisp 10 or 15 minutes longer as needed. Thawed berries are too fragile to toss and give off lots of liquid. This crisp is terrific served with low-fat vanilla ice cream.
