Jul. 14, 2009 - Beach Day recipe

Seems like this summer has been flying by and we haven’t made it to the local beach yet.  We have a local beach that does a homeschool day once a week and we often run into many friends.  It’s a lot of fun and a great time to catch up while having fun.  This year it seems first it was too rainy and then we got too busy.  Well today is going to be the day! Hope you are all taking time for some fun outings! Thought I’d share one of our favorite bring along treat for the beach and fair.  It’s something I modified from a recipe in my 30 day gourmet Freezer cookbook.  Those of you that know me won’t be surprised, I rarely follow a recipe! Frozen fruit cups 20 oz homemade jam or pie filling (usually I do cherry or blueberry) 15 oz. crushed pineapple one box instant white chocolate pudding prepared (can really use any flavor, often do vanilla) 15 oz. mandarin oranges 16oz. tub light cool whip Thaw cool whip and mix all ingredients together.  Spoon into punch size plastic cups.  Place plastic wrap over top of cup and secure with rubber band.  Bag cups into large freezer bags and store in freezer till you want to use.  Thaw slightly before serving. We make big batches of these and have them handy in the freezer.  I take the amount we want in a freezer bag in the cooler and by lunch time they are a creamy, almost ice cream like consistency.  These make a very nice cool treat for a hot day at the beach or the fair.  Enjoy!
