Watermelon-Slushie

WATCH LARISHA AND SKIBBLES MAKE THIS WATERMELON LIMEADE SLUSHIE LIVE ON PERISCOPE!

Are you the type of person constantly trying to use up everything in your fridge so you have zero waste? Having to come up with something different and get imaginative with new ideas.

Well, I definitely am.

Typically Larisha and I, being the adults in the family, tend to try to consume all the food we can from certain meals we make, or fruit we buy, but sometimes there’s just so much food and we just get creative and make something out of what we have. Think Chopped, Home Edition.

So the other day I came inside and it was pretty hot in general — outside the house, inside the house, etc. Just miserable. I opened the fridge to get something to drink and it was empty besides a pitcher of water.  I saw pieces of watermelon and pulled the container out to eat a few pieces but thought to myself that I would really like something to drink.  Skibs had been asking for ice cream all day and so I decided to make something that would satisfy my thirst and her craving. Trying to win the nice dad award.

I figured I could possibly create something with the watermelon. I was thinking of a milkshake, but realized that I didn’t have the ingredients that I needed, so I thought what would be the next best thing.

Slushie!

I looked around the fridge and found a few things and was ready to go.  We were going to make a Watermelon Limeade Slushie. I asked Skibs if she wanted to help me make a slushie and with her confused face said “Swaushie? Ok. Let’s go.  I Mini Chef Skibbles”.  And off we went! It was the perfect treat and everyone enjoyed.  We hope you do too!
