Cheater, Cheater Popsicle Eater

Fruit juice with strawberries popsicle.
Berries first!
Wrap up the summer with a super-easy fruit popsicle - it is practically cheating!

It is so easy to just buy pre-made food at the grocery store, especially if you have a hectic house.  Trust me, I know and have been guilty in the past (and no doubt future).  I have been on a personal quest to feed my family fewer processed, pre-made items and an easy way to start is with kid snacks.  But I don't want our family to just eat better, I want to include my kids in the process of making food ... even though it takes planning, prep and even more work.  I am self-taught in the kitchen and part of teaching my kids how to cook means teaching myself.    

You may think that this is an insanely easy recipe - it's meant to be!  This is a fun recipe that will let you sit back and let your kids rule the kitchen.  <gulp>.  <fingers crossed>.  It is also a concept that can be modified a thousand different ways depending on your taste and pantry.

- popsicle mold
- frozen strawberries whirled in the food processor spooned into the popsicle mold
- add fruit juice
- freeze
- eat!

  2. You can use any juice but this was a fruit punch from concentrate that I watered down.
