A Yummy Snack!

I still have a ton of fruit left over fruit from our outing to the farm and there has been some great sales at the store, but fresh fruit only last so long. I have been trying to come up with ideas to use them all. So last night when I got home from work I decided to use it in a healthy snack for the kiddos. Yummy homemade Popsicle. Here is my recipe for something your kids won't able able to resist on a hot summer day (it is 99 degrees at the moment).

Half a cup of Bing Cherries
Half a cup of Logan Berries
Half a cup of Strawberries
Half a cup of Blueberries
Half a cup of Yogurt
Quarter a cup of Flaxseed Oil

Into the blender it all goes and puree until it is a nice smooth constancy. Pour into your Popsicle mold and stick in the freezer. Now you have happy kids and a happy mom (because you just made a healthy, refreshing snack for your growing little ones)



Warning to all Mommy that make these Popsicles: They are messy and stain. I recommend the kids enjoy them outside while playing, otherwise you will end up with a red spotted carpet (and a not so happy Mommy).

Enjoy!
