With the sudden heat arriving on our doorstep over the weekend, it was easy to crave refreshing summer flavors. The good news? Those cravings are easily satisfied with healthy treats - a frozen goodness that refreshes and satisfies.
Even better news?
These are EASY to make! If you get the kids involved in this process, even better!
Ingredients
6 cups cubed watermelon, seeds and rind removed (about 4 pounds)
(You can also use other fruit like mango, strawberries or cantaloupe)
1 c blueberries
freshly squeezed juice from 1 lime (I ran out of limes, so used lemons and still turned out ok)
1 tablespoon freshly grated lime zest
Blend watermelon and blueberries in a blender/processor or juicer, until completely liquefied. Stir in lime juice and zest. Pour mixture into popsicle molds with sticks inserted (small dixie cups work well also!). You can also add whole blueberries into the mixture as you pour for a garnish or a crunchy "surprise" for the kids. Freeze.
