Watermelon* Popsicles (kids)

Prep Time

15 minutes + freezing time

Prep Notes

Avoid sugar laden popsicles, (not to mention artificial stuff), this summer!  And, let you kids help!  We always have too much watermelon so this is a great use of it.  Did you know that watermelon is an excellent source of potassium and hydration? Plus, all of these real foods provide nutrition: lime for vit C, mint for digestion and chia for fiber & antioxidants.

Yields

4-8 serving

Ingredients

  • 2 cups watermelon cubed or sliced

  • ¼ cup fresh mint

  • Zest of 1 lime 

  • Juice of 1 lime 

  • 1 T chia seed

Directions

  1. Blend all ingredients. 

  2. Pour into any type of popsicle mold or ice cube trays.  

    Picky kids?  Just blend and freeze the one main ingredient: watermelon.
