As most kids are, my 2 year old is obsessed with popsicles. I mean OBSESSED. There are some days that she asks for popsicles 4x a day. My general rule is 1 popsicle a day, but sometimes after 45 minutes of screaming "popalila" I do cave.
It's taken me all summer to finally get popsicle molds. I've been giving her Dreyer's (Edy's) all fruit snack popsicles. They aren't bad... but they aren't fresh either.
All the requests for popalilas got me thinking... I really should add some vegetables to my homemade popsicles.
Since I know she loves green smoothies, I figured spinach was the way to go.
So today I plan on making my veggie fruit popsicles.
I think my recipe will be:
-frozen blueberries
-fresh banana
-honey
-spinach
-little water?
I have no idea how they will turn out, but I'll let you know if she likes them!

yum... that does sound good! for a creamy pop you could add some yogurt. Did she like them? And now that it's "winter", does she still want them? Didn't hear her say that at all in Florida. Love you!
