I’ve partnered with Wholesome to show you just how easy and delicious it is to make a lightened up and healthier BBQ spread that you, your family, and your friends will love! Having friends and family over to enjoy a BBQ is one of my favorite summer activities, and I’m so excited to share with you how I put together a “Better-For-You BBQ” that you can feel good about serving to your friends and family! We can’t forget the rest of the meal, so let’s talk about the Better-For-You swaps I made to complete this BBQ spread. I finished this summer BBQ spread off with some Better-For-You Lemon Sweet Tea made with Wholesome Organic Coconut Palm Sugar.

I’ve partnered with Coconut Bliss to bring you a Banana Split Ice Cream Bar recipe that you’ll absolutely love! The ice cream is the star of this recipe, and that’s why I chose to use Coconut Bliss’ Madagascan Vanilla Bean Ice Cream . In the Madagascan Vanilla Bean Ice Cream the ingredients are: Organic Coconut Milk, Organic Agave Syrup, Organic Coconut Cream, Organic Vanilla Extract, and Organic Vanilla Beans. 1) If you oil the pan a little bit before pressing the cut parchment paper into place, the parchment paper will stay put and won’t move around while you’re pressing the crust and ice cream into place.

Vegan chocolate chips are one place where I feel like it’s important to splurge on high quality ingredients. I’ve made this recipe with both highly quality vegan chocolate chips, and with mediocre vegan chocolate chips. I prefer the Enjoy Life Dark Chocolate Morsels or Mini Chips.

It was my favorite dorm food in college, one of my favorite treats growing up, and is still one of my favorite meals. Since I love it so much, I knew I needed to make a version of it that was legitimately healthy. Since it’s dairy free, nut free, and oil free, it’s perfect to share with any of your loved ones.
