Fruit and veggie ice pops

These delicious fruit and veggie ice pops have recently became a favorite around this household! It’s a nice way to have my daughter eat healthier and a great snack on hot summer days, for adults too.

My daughter is not totally against fruit and veggie but she’ll get very picky. She’ll take a banana, maybe an apple or a pear once in a while and she’ll tolerate cucumbers as long as they’re peeled. And she loves strawberries and red bell peppers!

So I thought I should combine some of these and add some that she’s not crazy about (like carrots and beets) in a delicious and refreshing fruit and veggie ice pops recipe that we can all enjoy at summer time. I added Greek yogurt to make the pops more nutritious and filling. And since my daughter burns a lot of calories in her swimming and karate classes, I added some honey for a boost of energy. You can always drink the smoothie from these fruit and veggie ice pops instead of freezing in ice pops molds.

    This is a really creative way to get both servings for fruits and veggies in your kids! I also love that you can just use the juice without blending all the veggies yourself. Thanks for sharing! Stopping by from Friday Favorites Link Party :)

    These look good! I’ve never heard of Bolthouse Farms (may not be in our region) but I’m always looking for more ways to get more protein into my kids. LOVE the popsicle molds. Visiting from Morning Cup of Joe party.
