we’re currently on vacation
which means that i’ve been checked out
from everything:
work
work
work
life
but not when it comes to desserts.
these popsicles
were borne from necessity:
using up the last of the kefir
the last of the frozen strawberries
best of all,
these could be breakfast OR dessert.
happy summer break!
ps. i will be scarce for awhile.
but you can follow along with our adventures via my instagram
strawberries + kefir popsicles
makes 10
*note: i used up the last of kefir and a bowl of blitzed strawberries, the exact measurements for popsicle varied. use your best judgement.
**note: kefir is usually lactose free, or very low in lactose, which i am able to consume.
***note: i used these molds, which are my new favorite kitchen toy
approximately 1/2 cup kefir (my preferred brands are lifeway or green valley organics, whichever is on sale that week)
1/2 – 3/4 cup strawberries, sweetened with 1 TBL sugar or honey, vitamixed until smooth
pour each into pop molds, alternating flavors until all are used up and/or filled.
if you’re feeling fancy, use a skewer stick (in my case, a chopstick) to marble the mix together.
freeze at least 4 hours, ideally overnight.
BAM!

thank you lisa!
Those look similar to a pop bar around where I live. It was so soft and delicious. I wouldn’t mind making my own homemade ones. Those look really tasty btw. Thanks for sharing
normally i would be envious that you have a pop bar around where you live but these were so easy to whip up and i know exactly what is in them, so we’re even! 🙂
