My new Summer Treat for Baby Bear

My new Summer Treat for Baby Bear

popsicles with hidden veggies stamp

I love to put veggies in everything that Baby Bear Eats.  She hasn't wanted to eat them lately (but I always put them un-hidden on her plate so she can choose).  I found these really fun Popsicle holders that are chubby and small kid friendly for Baby Bear to use.  Plus they look like big kid ice cream.   They needed a creamy filling since they look like regular cones, so this is what I came up with.


ingredients for healthy popsicles

Materials

  • Blentec Blender (you need a GOOD blender for chopping the spinach)
  • 2 really brown bananas 
  • Hand full spinach or celery 
  • Re-usable Popsicle holders (makes around 8, or 4 with a yummy smoothie to eat now)

(it is a very mild green, start out with less spinach and add to taste)
  • Any other fruits that you want to add (the ratio to banana should stay 2/3 banana in the mix)
NO SUGAR/ HONEY/SWEETNER NEEDED!!

Break up the fruits and put the liquids in the blender at the bottom.   You will want to blend until everything is smooth and evenly blended (no spinach pieces should be visable)

Make sure to taste the mixture to make sure it is creamy and delicious.  If not, add more banana! 

healthy pops ready to freeze

Press the Tops on, and freeze for at least 4 hours


ENJOY!

(& you don't need tell them about the veggies- it kinda looks like chocolate anyway)
