The 4th of July brings us all together, and although we all celebrate a little differently, one thing we know is for certain: there will be food! And likely, there will be a lot of unhealthy junk food. That’s where we come in. We have a clean, healthy and delicious recipe that is a major crowd-pleaser. Opt for this dessert that is both appropriate for the holiday and appropriate for your health… even if it is the only healthy thing you eat all day (;
