Storable Snack: Popsicles help beat the heat


Much of America is dealing with intense heat - everyone is looking for a great way to cool off. Homemade popsicles are a quick and easy way to have fun with your kids and cool off at the same time. It is quite easy to make them with ingredients that you have on hand.

There are many recipes online for making popsicles. A quick search for popsicle recipes will give you more than you will ever have a chance to make. We've made many different kinds over the years. One of our favorites is pudding pops. Just make up your favorite flavor of instant pudding using reconstituted powdered milk and freeze. We also freeze leftover yogurt smoothie which makes great popsicles. Use 100% fruit juice and add chopped fruit to make your own fun combinations. We love pineapple juice mixed with mashed bananas. We also stir in some homemade yogurt sometimes to make it creamy.You are only limited by your imagination and your room in the freezer.
