Freezer Friday

I am always looking for snack ideas for my kids. If I don't keep it creative, then they always revert to wanting fruit snacks.

So, here is an easy fun solution with SO many possibilities...

Banana Pops
What you will need:
Banana's Cut in Half
Your Choice of Yogurt
Your Choice of Toppings: Rice Cripsies, chocolate chips, smashed graham crackers, smashed cereal, nuts, or anything else you can think of.
Popsicle Sticks

Here were my cast of characters:

Start by peeling your banana, placing a Popsicle stick inside and then rolling it in your yogurt.

Roll into your topping.

Place in Freezer Bags. I chose to freeze them two at a time because I have two kids and I know I will thaw them two at a time. You could wrap them individually in Freezer wrap.

What I love about this snack, the possibilities are endless.

Freezer Friday

I am trying to save a little more money and waste less food around here. Normally I will just throw out strawberries that are looking a little past their prime.

We love pancakes and crepes at our house. We also love to put strawberries on those two things, so I decided to save the strawberries.

Here is how I did it.

Cut all strawberries and slice into thin pieces. Sprinkle about 2 T. of sugar and 1/2 t. vanilla over the top.

Mix!

Let sit 10 min and let the juices begin to form.

I then took half of my strawberries, placed them in the blender with a Tablespoon of milk to form a syrup. Then I added the syrup back with the strawberries, mixed it well and then placed into freezer bags.

Next time, you should give it a try.
