These tasty patriotic treats were a huge hit with the whole family! My kids thought I was such a great mom because I even let them have them for breakfast. Score with the mom points!! I mixed everything up and froze them in 8 store bought popsicle molds but you could freeze them in paper cups if you don't have popsicle molds on hand. The measurements in this recipe aren't precise and because the size of your mold or cup will vary, they may need to be adjusted. I'm excited to experiment with different fruit and yogurt combinations and come up with some new favorites. I love finding healthy treats and plan to make these all summer long!
Ingredients
8 -10 large fresh straberries
4 cups Greek Yogurt*
2 cups fresh blueberries
honey, stevia or other natural sweetner, to taste
8 popsicle sticks
* If you're stricktly sticking to the 21 Day Fix program, use plain yogurt. If not, you can use vanilla flavored.
Directions
Blend strawberries in a food processor until pureed. If you want, you can add in some honey, stevia or other natural sweetener to make the strawberries a little less tart. Pour into popsicle molds. If you want a distinct line between the strawberry and yogurt layer, freeze for an hour or so before adding the yogurt layer. Place blueberries in food processor and blend briefly, you don't want them to be pureed like the strawberries. Gently fold the blended blueberries into the yogurt. Mix as little as possible if you want to keep some of the white color from the yogurt. Again, you can add a little sweetener if you want to sweeten it up a little (especially if you're using plain yogurt). Pour into the popsicle molds over the strawberries. Add in a popsicle stick and freeze until frozen through. When frozen, run the molds under hot water to loosen the popsicle. Remove from mold and enjoy!
