Applesauce Ice Pops
Nothing says summer like ice pops, and the flavor possibilities are limitless. If you can freeze it, it can become an ice pop!
Applesauce ice pops are especially great snacks for both children and
adults. Pureéd applesauce works best — it can be thinned out with water,
making for a consistency more suitable for freezing. Children love this
snack because it puts the familiar — applesauce — on a stick! Adults
will love it, too, particularly with the addition of chopped herbs like
mint or rosemary for a grown-up spin on a childhood favorite.
Blackberry Ice Pops
These delicious ice pops
are as satisfying to eat as they are to look at — they’re a refreshing
way to beat the summer heat. Even better, this recipe comes in at under
100 calories a pop.
Frozen Banana Slices
Who needs a bowl of ice cream when you
can enjoy fresh frozen fruit? Simply slice bananas, drizzle in dark
chocolate, and when you get a sweet tooth craving, take one from the
freezer and pop it in your mouth. Your waistline will stay bikini-ready
all summer long!
