Foodie Tuesday: Homemade Popsicles

My little guy's favorite breakfast in the summer is popsicles. Yes, I said popsicles for breakfast! He thinks I'm such a cool mom but really it is very healthy! We make homemade smoothie popsicles with our old/left over fruit.

When we have fruit that is about to go bad, I wash it, cut it and put it a baggie and into the freezer it goes! Then when we are ready, I make a smoothies for breakfast or to go with our lunch and the left overs I pour into popsicle molds that I got for about $4 at Target and freeze them for another day.

I don't really follow a recipe but I'll tell you our most common ingredients:

• 1 frozen banana
• a hand full of frozen blueberries
• about 1/2 cup of yogurt (in my house it is goat's yogurt because my boys are allergic to dairy)
• milk to the consistency you want (again we use goat's milk)
• I like to microwave about a tablespoon of honey to sweeten it (it must be microwaved or it will mess up your blender)
• Or I'll add some Xylitol to sweeten it
• I like to add strawberries to mine (my 3 year old is allergic so I don't add this if he is eating it)

And there you have it! Healthy, and easy!
