Greek yogurt
I like to use Greek yogurt in these popsicles. Greek yogurt adds a nice boost of protein and calcium. Greek yogurt is one of my favorite ingredients- not only is it healthy but it’s also delicious and so versatile.
While most people have tried Greek yogurt plain or perhaps topped with fruit or granola, it can actually be used in a very wide variety of dishes, both savory and sweet.
Greek yogurt is rich in protein and is healthy substitute for high calorie condiments like mayonnaise and sour cream. It can also be added to sauces, soups and pasta dishes to add creaminess without adding any fat. I use it to make a delicious Tzatziki Sauce for my Greek Zucchini Fritters, and a tasty Dill Yogurt Sauce for my Grilled Salmon Burgers.
You can even use Greek yogurt in desserts like cakes, cheesecake, and pudding. Read my post all about Greek yogurt.
Strawberry Greek Yogurt Popsicles
These homemade strawberry popsicles use fresh, summer strawberries. However, you can really use any type of berry like blueberries, raspberries or blackberries.
Not only are strawberries delicious, they also happen to be packed with vitamins, minerals, fiber and antioxidants. Vitamin C is a powerful immunity booster and one cup of strawberries has more than 100% of your daily recommended amount of it.
Healthy Snack For Kids
The combination of Greek yogurt and berries makes these strawberry yogurt popsicles a nutritious and satisfying snack for kids and toddlers. And you can control the amount of sugar that you're adding to these popsicles, unlike store-bought popsicles.
This easy 3-ingredient recipe is also a great way to get your kids in the kitchen! They’ll enjoy adding the fruit and yogurt to the popsicle molds in layers and seeing the finished product a few hours later when it emerges from the freezer.
You can also try my yogurt-dipped strawberries drizzled with dark chocolate.
Step by step instructions
Step 1- Gather your ingredients. You'll need strawberries (fresh or frozen), Greek yogurt and honey (or other sweetener of your choice).
Step 2- Place strawberries and 2 tablespoons honey together in a food processor. Purée until smooth.
Step 3- Mix the Greek yogurt and 1 tablespoon honey in a bowl. Layer the strawberry purée and sweetened yogurt in popsicle molds.
Step 4- Freeze until solid. Then when you're ready to eat, dip the popsicle mold in warm water and pull the popsicles out. Enjoy!
Best Popsicle Mold
This Norpro Frozen Ice Pop Maker is what I use to make my popsicles! If you don't have a set like this, you can use paper cups or ice cube trays.
