Green Smoothie Popsicles

These green smoothie popsicles are packed with a whole serving of vegetables (though you’d never be able to tell from their creamy, sweet taste!)

After whipping up Cherry Yogurt Popsicles last month, I’ve been pretty obsessed with this homemade popsicles thing. And if you like green smoothies you’re going to love these Green Smoothie Popsicles.

Green Smoothie Popsicles

Everything I love in liquid form is somehow even better in popsicle form. Like coconut water and pieces of fruit? Heck yes, throw it in a popsicle mold. Fresh orange juice? Oh, yeah. Bourbon slush? I think you know the answer.

Green smoothies are no exception to this rule, and from which blossomed these beautiful green smoothie popsicles!

Unlike some people who make their green smoothies with 100% vegetables, I like my green smoothies to actually taste good. So while there is a hefty handful of spinach in these pops, the majority of the delicious flavor is coming from banana, ginger, and honey.

To make these Green Smoothie Popsicles, you’ll essentially blend up the makings for a green smoothie, pour into your popsicle mold, and freeze. I added a few thin slices of kiwi to each popsicle for decoration, and you could really add whatever colorful fruit you fancy for added pizzaz.

These make a great on-the-go breakfast or just a healthy snack for hot summer days. But whenever you enjoy them, I really think you’re going to love ‘em!

To make these Green Smoothie Popsicles, you’ll need:

• 1 cup milk
• 1 cup fresh spinach
• ¼ cup parsley
• 1 banana
• 2 kiwis
• 2 Tbsp honey
• 1 Tbsp grated fresh ginger
