Homemade Popsicles

During the heat wave we had in the PNW, I made some homemade popsicles for Munchkin and I to enjoy.  I didn’t look at any recipe, I just threw what I had on hand into my Ninja, blended it up and poured it into some popsicle molds and let them freeze overnight.  We enjoyed them a lot even if they were messy.  Messy is perfect for eating outside on a hot day, right?!

Ingredients:
1 Banana
handful of strawberries
Plain Greek yogurt (probably about a cup or so but keep adding until you get the consistency you want) Also, I think Vanilla yogurt would be yummy, or any flavor really!

Steps:
1.  Peel banana and throw chunks into your blender/Ninja or whatever you’re using
2. Wash and remove the greens from the strawberries.  I cut them in half and threw them on top of the banana.  Then I blended them together for a few seconds.
3.  Add Greek Yogurt. I added about a cup as that’s all I had room for (I was using my small bowl thing.)
4.  Spoon/pour into popsicle molds.
5.  Place in freeze until frozen
6.  Enjoy!

These were a hit!  We’ll be eating them all summer long I think.

  2. Those sound good too! We usually don't have juice in the house so I never think of using it. You could always add fruit to the juice though:)
