Fruity Popsicles


It's so easy to make your own fruity healthy Popsicles, there really is no reason to not do so! Keep these on hand for the kids - you'll know when they reach for one of these Popsicles they are treating themselves to something that is actually GOOD for them!

Following is two recipes that you can exchange with other fruits and fruit juices (one requires yogurt). Use Tupperware or Rubbermaid containers.

Banana Popsicles

3 cups pineapple-banana juice

1 small banana

By hand, mash the banana VERY well and combine with juice. Place in Tupperware or Rubbermaid Popsicle containers, leaving a small amount of space on top; cover with the Popsicle lid; freeze.

Fruity Yogurt Popsicles

2 cups vanilla yogurt

1 cup mashed raspberries

3/4 cup orange juice

Blend the raspberries in a blender; add vanilla yogurt and orange juice; blend a few more seconds. Pour into the freezer containers, leaving small space on top; cover and freeze.
