Healthy 4th of July popsicle recipes are easy to make and a great project to do with the kids. I count this as quality time with kids, rather than time in the kitchen. The possibilities are so endless and the end results so delicioso! We made three kinds, but two of them had similar ingredients, so I scored 'cool mom' points, but didn't spend hours in the kitchen! This striped one was the most time consuming and you could just as easily have fun with only two stripes instead of three:) This is a three step process, but it's so simple! For the triple stripe popsicle pictured above, here's what I did: 1st Layer- 1 1/2 cups frozen mixed berries 1 tsp vanilla 1/8 tsp stevia 1 cup water Place ingredients in blender, blend well and pour into popsicle forms to fill 1/3 of each. Place wooden popsicle sticks into the mixture. You'll be pouring the following layers in around the stick. Freeze for about an hour. 2nd Layer- Organic vanilla yogurt. Just pour some yogurt in to fill popsicle form 2/3 of the way full. Freeze for about an hour. 3rd Layer- 1 cup frozen blueberries 1 small peach 1/8 tsp stevia 1 cup water Blend in blender until smooth and add to fill each popsicle mold. Freeze and enjoy! Starburst Popsicles I made the starburst popsicles with the leftover mixture from the 1st layer above. Fill half of each popsicle form with the berry mixture. Use a funnel to add organic vanilla yogurt to each to fill to the top. Place lid on and freeze. When these are done, you will have popsicles that are all white in the center. Good way to make a creamsicle too! These are so simple and were a huge hit with the kids. Pina Colada Pops
These are my favorite! So easy. Here's what I used: 1/4 cup coconut cream which I purchased in a can at Trader Joe's 1/2 cup frozen pineapples 1 banana 1 tsp vanilla Throw it all in the blender and blend. Fill popsicle molds and freeze. Especially good on a hot, sunny day!
