Lemonade slushy/snow cone
Its amazing what some lemon juice and stevia can do to plain chipped ice. Last week was the local fair which we went to every day. While we were there they had snow cones for sale so I got one but all the food dyes and sugar can't be good for someone to ingest multiple times a week so I went home and made my own healthy version that tastes like one of my favorite drinks, Lemonade! Lets make gluten free, GP friendly, refined sugar free, and dye free snow cones with just 3 ingredients!
What you'll need:
A blender or ice shaver
1 Cup ice
1 1/2 TBS lemon juice
1 Teaspoon Stevia
- Put ice in ice shaver and turn on until all the ice is shaved.
- Mix up the lemon juice and stevia.
- Add to ice and stir in.
- Enjoy!
Peach Gel-O
Its digestive track paralysis awareness month so I'm going to try and post a recipe at least one a week during the month of august that is GP friendly for most people. so lets start out with something simple! Remember being able to eat peaches and not have them bother your stomach? Or do you eat them now with GP because you love the taste so much but they kill your stomach? Well now you don't have to suffer either the lack of peaches or the great pain. Are you ready? Let's make gluten free, dairy free, no added sugar gel-o!
What you will need:
- A Wisk
- A bowl to form the gel-o in
- 1 packet of unflavored Gelatin (like Knox, about 2 teaspoons)
- 1 cup total of peach nectar (1/3 cup cool and 2/3 cup boiling temperature)
- Optional, a natural sweetener like stevia (although I did not use anything other than the nectar)
- Pour the cold nectar into the bowl you are letting the gel-o set in.
- Whisking constantly slowly pour in the gelatin until all is completely dissolved.
- Add hot nectar to cold mixture and mix until all dissolved again. Optional, add sweetener.
- Refrigerate for about 2-3 hours or until firm.
