3 More Fun and Fruity Raw Recipes for Kids

No introduction for this post…just kid-friendly raw recipes!

#1: Rainbow Fruit Skewers

Who doesn’t like skewered foods?!  And rainbows?!

Ingredients:

• Red: raspberries
• Orange: oranges
• Yellow: mango
• Green: green grapes
• Blue: blueberries
• Indigo: plums
• Violet: blackberries
• Wooden skewers

Directions:

Stick the fruit on the skewers in the ROYGBIV order.  Of course, feel free to substitute any other fruits that you and your kids happen to like.

And yes, I know plums aren’t really indigo and blackberries aren’t violet, but it’s close enough!

#2: Banana Blueberry Ice Cream

The low fat raw way!

Ingredients:

• 6 bananas; peeled, sliced, and frozen
• 1 cup blueberries; frozen

Directions:

Puree everything in a food processor for about 5 minutes (if you have a powerful blender, that will work as well).  You will likely have to stop and scrap down the sides a few times.

And if freezing takes too much time, you can make “Banana Blueberry Pudding” instead!

#3: Carmel Camel Dip

This one is from my low fat raw recipe book Low Fat, Fruit Filled, High Fun Raw Recipes (submitted by wonderfully raw reader, Melissa Conrad) and it’s a great one for children and adults alike!

Ingredients:

• 16 Medjool dates, pitted and soaked for at least 1 hour
• 1-2 tbsp of date-water
• 2 medium sweet apples (Gala, Fuji, Red Delicious, etc.)
• (Optional): 1/2 medium banana

Directions:

Drain water from the dates, leaving about 2 tbsp worth. Place dates and water in a food processor or blender. Add half of a banana, if desired. The banana makes the dipping sauce extra creamy. More water may be added for a more runny consistency.

Cut apples into slices and dip away!!

Go raw and be fit,
