My kids love popsicles and now that the weather is warming up it’s becoming a go-to snack and helps get them outside! When it comes to popsicles I prefer to make my own so they aren’t loaded down with sugar. I’ll admit though, I’m a little lazy and buying a box of 100 ice pops is tempting.

The lids go on pretty easily with a little bit of a technique — pinching/squeezing the rim and the lid together. If you don’t finish your ice pop, just put the lid back on and stick it back in the freezer for later!
We like to have smoothies at least once a week so I just whip up an extra big batch the pour the leftovers into the [amazon_link id=”B00D9HQ30W” target=”_blank” ]Set of 6 Silicone Ice Pop Maker Molds, BPA Free Popsicle Molds – The Best Way to Make Healthy, Drip-Free Popsicles, Freeze Pops and Smoothie Pops – No Mess, Flexible, Durable, Easy to Clean and FDA Approved – 5 Free Recipes Included – 100% Money Back Lifetime Guarantee![/amazon_link], pop the caps on and freeze. Since I have three kids, that gives me two snacks for each of them! Here’s an example of what I made this week with some over-ripe bananas I had on hand:
2 red Solo cups full of ice
3 ripe bananas
About 1 cup of vanilla yogurt
Milk (as needed to achieve desired consistency — I didn’t measure but probably used about 1 cup)
I tossed in all the ingredients and blended in my [amazon_link id=”B00ESQ5DD6″ target=”_blank” ]Ninja Ultima Blender Plus (BL830)[/amazon_link]. It made two child size smoothies (my oldest was at school), 1 adult sized smoothie and there was enough left over to fill all 6 Ice Pop Molds. I had actually intended to make peanut butter banana smoothies but got distracted and forgot to add the peanut butter!
Smoothies are so versatile. Sometimes I sneak in spinach. Sometimes I add protein powder or chia seeds. It’s a great way to add healthful ingredients and still feel like we’re having a treat. We often have smoothie leftovers because I never really measure anything and tend to go a little overboard. The Ice Molds are perfect for freezing any leftovers! They’re super easy to use and we love the bright, fun colors. They are BPA free and dishwasher safe which makes clean up a breeze. I can’t wait to try them with different recipes like pudding pops, fruit juices and more.
These durable Ice Pop Molds are FDA approved and come with a 100% money back lifetime guarantee so you’ve got nothing to loose! Give them a try — I bet you’ll like them as much as our family does!
