Before work I made a treat that I could enjoy later in the evening. I am loving making my own frozen fruit bars. bars. Today’s pops are Lite Pom juice with Frozen Raspberries. Here’s a link to the other frozen treats I have made recently.
I had fresh raspberries that I froze with the intention of using them in the fruit bars. I thought having them frozen would make it easier to chop them up and add them into the molds.
I broke up the frozen raspberries and dropped them into the molds, then topped off with fruit juice.
The Lite Pom is really lite. There is no added sugar in this juice, so if you like your frozen fruit bars to have a sweeter taste you should buy the regular juice or add a sweetener to it. I like mine lite so the flavor works out great for me.
Frozen Raspberry Pops.
After making up these fresh pops, I made a cold salad to bring to work and enjoy at lunch, in the mix is, spinach, cucumber, avocado and a sliced egg. Topped with vinegar and a touch of oil. I love a cold refreshing salad on a hot day.
After work I came home and grabbed a Frozen Raspberry Pop. Loved it!
Stuart also thought they were good.
Random Question of the Day: Does this hot weather affect your workouts? I do my 2 mile walk in the early morning before it hits 90 degrees. What do you do to stay fit in the summer without killing yourself in the heat?

I’m with you, up early to get those workouts in during the cool(est) part of the day!
Your salad looks divine. 🙂
In the winter I cannot get up early to workout, but in the summer it’s really the only option! It was a hot one this morning, but worth it!
I was out there early today for my run/walk, too! It was only 60 degrees at home when I did it, though. Maybe you were out a bit later? At any rate, I totally agree. I try to do morning workouts in the winter, too, just because it’s easier to get sidetracked or have something else come up if I wait until after work. But I’m with you, it’s tough when it’s so dark out!
Yes early is key in the summer, depending on where you live. When I was in CA, it did not really matter. In NJ, the heat and humidity is so much worse so I take the dog out early and then often do indoor workouts (elliptical, weights). It’s not as interesting though.
Yeah the humidity really play a part. I did my weights last night once the sun went down and there was a cool breeze! I try not to let the weather determine my workout.
I went swimming today-it was cool and refreshing (indoor pool) but I still got a great (1m) workout in.
Now that’s one way to beat the heat! Swimming is one activity that I wish I could do more, I’ve always wanted to take a water workout class.
Thos are perfect for this incredible heat wave right now.
I know, it’s been so darn hot.
