13 Scoop-Worthy Homemade Ice Cream Recipes
Some people refer to summer as bikini season, but around here, we prefer to call it ice cream season. The temperature rises, and so do your frozen dessert needs along with it; why not take that as an opportunity to hone your homemade ice cream-making skills? Here are 13 ice cream recipes sure to motivate you, heatwave or no.
And if you don’t have an ice cream maker, no worries! Here are seven ways to make ice cream without an ice cream machine—but if you would like to own a dedicated frozen dessert machine, we rounded up the best ice cream makers and snow cone machines too.
Either way, it’s time for some creamy, dreamy treats that’ll make you forget all about the ice cream truck. Eat them as-is, give them the sundae treatment, or even try them with some savory ice cream toppings. They’re scream-worthy, every one.

The Best No-Cook Recipes to Survive a Heatwave
Looking for a few great no-cook recipes to cook during a heatwave? By now you’ve probably heard about the dangerously hot weather descending on the East Coast and Midwest with temperatures set to soar well into triple digits (gulp). In addition to taking cover indoors with face pancaked flat against the AC unit and bags of frozen peas stuffed in places bags of frozen peas should never be, you might be wondering what and how am I supposed to eat in a moment like this?
We can safely say turning on the oven is an absolute no-go. Venturing outside in the heat to find food is also an extremely high-risk maneuver, and you’d have to be devoid of human compassion to make a delivery bike boy or girl peddle through the dense humidity and searing sun just so you can have sushi.

Get our Avocado Yogurt Dip recipe.
Red Pepper and Feta Dip

You can find pre-roasted red peppers in any grocery store or deli and they’ll work perfectly. Serve this fun dip chilled with pita chips, celery or carrot sticks.

Curry Chicken Salad
Technically someone has to cook this chicken at some point but one of my hottest tip for good and easy chicken salad is to prebuy a roasted chicken from the market or a good rotisserie spot if you have one and use that meat. Saves you the hassle and also the heat of doing it yourself. Curry chicken salad goes swell over crunchy greens and feel free to add or subtract any ingredients as you see fit. Get our Curry Chicken Salad recipe.
