My new favorite thing to do is to make smoothies that are pretty colors so that kids can’t say ewww its green! I decided to take that idea and make Popsicles the same way. I found that it is easy to add carrots to recipes without changes the color a whole lot. So here it goes and I encourage you to try some fun combinations yourself.

Ruby Red Fruit Popsicles
1lb of red berries (I like to use raspberry/strawberry)
2 ripe bananas
1/2 cup-1 cup carrot

Puree the ingredients in a Vitamix and pour into Popsicles molds and freeze. If you do not have Popsicle molds just use Dixie cups and Popsicle sticks.

Ideas:

• replace berries with kiwis and replace carrots with spinach if your kids think green is cool
• replace berries with pineapple or freshly squeezed orange juice for a golden delight
