A recipe from my archivesWhile Maddy and I were out shopping we came across a box of frozen pop molds. Since it's been far too long since I've made them, I decided to buy a package and try them.
Looking at the variety of kits they had, I couldn't help but remember the days when my sister and I used to make them with nothing but a plastic cup and a metal spoon. We'd freeze Kool-Aid or orange juice--whatever we had, but as little kids we didn't venture to try anything else.
Today I ventured.
Using our fruit smoothie recipe, the kids and I made a batch of healthy "Banana-Strawberry Ice Pops." They are so easy to make, and so delicious I'll share the recipe with you:
Ingredients:
Banana
Strawberries
Pinapple
Red Grapes
Ice
about 1/2 cup of juice, skim milk, or yogurt
Unfortunately I don't measure, I just toss in whatever I like. Sometimes I'll even add seedless watermelon--yum!
Combine the fruit in the blender
Add ice. I get to put my ice on top, isn't that cool?
Blend until smooth and then pour into pop molds.
Note: Don't fill them to the top as the frozen mixture will expand.
Place pops into the freezer until solid,
and reward your workers with a cold drink!
