Pop-O-Rama { Blueberry Greek Yogurt Popsicles }

by Donna on June 2, 2011

 

Who doesn’t LOVE a homemade popsicle in the hot summer?

 

Today’s featured popsicle is the Blueberry Greek Yogurt Popsicle!

 

Blueberry Greek Yogurt Popsicles

Ingredients:

1 Container (17.6 oz) Fage 0% Greek Yogurt ( I use 0% to cut fat)

1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries

1/4 cup honey (more or less to taste)

Tools:

A blender

Popsicle maker

1. Place all ingredients into a blender or a bowl (if you are using an immersion Blender – my favorite kitchen tool!!

2. Blend until smooth.

 

3. Fill your popsicle maker with the yummy yogurt mixture and let it freeze!

 

 

4. Enjoy!

A few notes:

I use a Zoku Quick Pop Machine and I love it!  We keep ours in the freezer during the summer and when I want to make pops I just pull it out and throw in some juice, pureed fruits or pudding and in 7 minutes we have homemade pops!  It’s so easy and the kids love watching the pops come out in minutes!

If you’ve never tried Greek yogurt before, give it a shot. I prefer to use Fage plain 0% greek yogurt to cut down on fat and sugar. I usually add my own strawberries and honey or agave nectar to sweeten.  I started using Greek yogurt because it has a higher protein content than other yogurts and it’s super rich and creamy!!
