We are in the first week of summer!
Can you feel it where you live? Last week we had crazy rainstorms over here that caused major floodings in downtown Calgary and other areas along the river. Fortunately, the floods didn’t effect us directly. While much of the city is busy cleaning up the aftermath (especially with the Calgary Stampede due to start in just 1.5 weeks), I can only hope that the sun will come out more and help dry these massive amounts of water.
And once it finally does, it will also be time to turn off the oven and spend time outside enjoying no-bake treats (the making of which doesn’t heat up the house even more).
MY LATEST VIDEOS
For this reason I want you bring you a round-up of 20 awesome summer recipes that you can refer to all summer long when the sweet cravings kick in but its just too hot to bake.
The recipes from last week’s No-Bake Party are included + more recipes from the wonderful ladies who participated and from SpecialtyCakeCreations.
I roughly divided them into categories of 1. popsicles & ice cream, 2. bite-sized treats, 3. bars & chocolate, 4. drinkable treats and 5. even a cake.
Popsicles & Ice Cream
Strawberry Lemoncello Popsicles
Easy Oreo Ice Cream Sandwiches
Mexican Chocolate Chili Fudge Popsicles
Tangy Grapefruit Yogurt Popsicles
Bite-Sized Treats

CAKE

Awesome roundup! Thanks for including my bars and for letting me guest post for you. 🙂
It was my absolute pleasure Erin! Making coconut butter is still on my to-do list for this summer so I can make your strawberry truffles 🙂
The mango iced tea looks amazing….
Like Carla, I’ll have one of each please!! So cool (pun intended) to be included with this bunch of sweetness.
Its my pleasure to have you in this roundup Jacquee 🙂
I want every single one of these desserts!!! 😀 They all look fantastic! Thank you for including my recipes!! Xoxo
Haha…sounds like it will be one busy oven-less summer 🙂 Thanks for letting me include your recipes!
Awesome! I think my core temp. dropped a few degrees just looking at these. I was just thinking that it would be a fun challenge to go oven-free one summer. That might be me talking crazy though… 🙂
I’d totally be up for such a challenge. Dessert is covered I think 🙂 And I’d just use the bbq all the time for proteins…
