Blueberry Yogurt Pops

Serves

Here's a healthy treat that kids are sure to love, especially on a hot summer day. A simple fresh blueberry sauce is mixed with vanilla yogurt and then poured into popsicle molds. If you don't have a mold, use small paper cups. Be sure to allow several hours of freezer time for the popsicles to harden.

Ingredients

1 3/4 cups fresh organic blueberries
3 tablespoons Sugar
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 1/2 cups nonfat vanilla yogurt
6 small paper cups and wooden popsicle sticks OR a popsicle mold

Directions

Combine the blueberries, sugar and lemon juice in a small saucepan over high heat and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook, stirring frequently, until the mixture thickens, about 10 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and cool completely.

Place the yogurt in a bowl and add the cooled blueberry sauce, whisking to blend. Pour the mixture into 6 popsicle molds, insert wooden ice cream sticks, and freeze until set, about 4 hours.
