keeping cool

it has been hot hot hot this week! 

 today's weather is perfect for homemade popsicles and hiding out inside...

yogurt//fruit popsicles

* i made honeydew melon, blueberry lemon, raspberry, and peanut butter

 blend plain yogurt, honey, and a splash of vanilla- set aside 
(*note- i don't use measurements...everything is added to taste. 
make sure to dip your finger in and sample a bit before moving on!)

separately, blend the flavor of popsicle fruit you want with a bit of milk 
( i use vanilla almond milk) and a sprinkle of sugar or honey. 
(for the peanut butter i used a couple of spoonfuls mixed with the almond milk and blended)

pour yogurt and fruit blends into popsicle molds (a little of each at a time) 
and swirl around with a skewer to mix. 
add popsicle stick and freeze overnight or for a few hours...

(to make the striped popsicle, pour a layer of fruit in the mold then let it freeze for about 30-45 min. 
then pour a layer of yogurt blend and add your popsicle stick. refreeze. 
repeat layering/freeze step until you fill the mold. continue freezing normally from there)

 3 cheers for something cool on a hot day!

 now lets see if i can not eat them all before bub gets home from school...
