Hog's Head Harry Potter Butterbeer Floats

 This simple 4-Ingredient recipe, has all the goodness of Butterbeer, paired with creamy vanilla ice cream. I'm sure Harry, Ron and Hermione would approve! Jump to Recipe Ever since I read the first chapter of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer Stone, I have been hooked. There is just something about the magical world that I love. The possibility that things are more than we see is something I've always day dreamed about as a child.  Once my children came into the world, I shared my love of Harry Potter with them. I've read them the books, we've watched the movies (more time than I can count) and I've made a few Harry Potter themed movie nights.  Since clear cream soda is something we usually do not have in Canada (ours is pink), I've never been able to try and recreate Butterbeer. Until this past week! What is Butterbeer? In the Harry Potter series of novels and movies, you see Harry, Ron and Hermione enjoy Butterbeer at a pub called the Hog's Head. It is descri...

Vegan Blueberry Coconut Frozen Yogurt (No-Machine)

 Fresh blueberries are the star in this simple frozen yogurt recipe. With no machine needed, a handful of ingredients are combined to make a delicious vegan summer treat!   Jump to Recipe It's summer and my kids have been craving ice cream. Almost every day I get a request to go for ice cream. In the past, I would have happily loaded them into the car, and enjoyed a sinful cone of ice cream with them. Now that I started Weight Watchers, I was hit with the reality of just how many points are in ice cream. It doesn't mean I will never enjoy it, it just means it won't be a weekly occurence. That's why I decided to try and make a lower point version that I could enjoy everyday, if I wanted. Without feeling guilty. I have always been a frozen yogurt fan. I love the smooth tart creamy treat, that isn't overly sweet and full of fruit. Unfortunately most frozen yogurts sold in stores are also packed with sugar, or corn syrup. As delicious as they may be, they are almost ice...
