Do you have a hard time getting your children to eat their vegetables? Try these delicious hidden veggie popsicles!

Guest Post by Whitney Cornelison of Beauty in the Mess

Veggies in a popsicle?!

Really?!

I promise they aren’t as bad as they sound. While I am sure you think I have lost my mind, let me tell you that my kids gobbled these up and asked for more. They did!

Do you have a hard time getting your children to eat their vegetables?

For the most part, my kids are great about eating at least one bite of something they don’t like. Usually they do find that they like it. There are those vegetables though that are hard to get them to even eat one bite. Then there are those weeks when we are super busy. We find ourselves making poor food choices. It is then that our attitudes and how we feel reflects those poor choices.

In an effort to eat more veggies while enjoying a cool treat {since we were without air conditioning for a week during the heat wave in North Carolina} I added about one cup of mashed sweet potato to our favorite smoothie recipe and added more liquid to help with the consistency.

They were delicious!!

Are you ready to try them?

Hidden Veggie Popsicles

Author Whitney Cornelison

Ingredients

  • 1 banana
  • about 1 cup of mashed sweet potato
  • 20 ounces {or one can} of pineapple chunks {reserve the juice}
  • Pineapple Juice or Orange Juice {or both!}

Instructions

  1. Dump everything in your blender and blend until smooth {our Blendtec made this SO easy!} add more liquid if you need to.
  2. Pour this deliciousness into popsicle molds. {We used the Zoku Quick Pop Maker, which is SO FUN!}
  3. FREEZE!
  4. The Zoku froze the Hidden Veggie Popsicles super fast, but if you are using molds, wait several hours until the popsicles are frozen.
  5. Pull them out and ENJOY!!

Aren’t they YUMMY?!

    These look delicious, will have to try it! Though my kids like sweet potatoes as is, it’s avocados I’m trying to hide and so far it’s worked well in smoothies with mangoes and bananas. 🙂
