EatingWell: Strawberry-Banana Smoothie Pops
Place strawberries, banana, yogurt, juice and maple syrup in a blender and blend until smooth. Divide among six 4-ounce freezer-pop molds (see note). Freeze until firm, at least 6 hours.
May be kept in freezer for up to 3 weeks.
Recipe tip: If you don't have freezer pop molds, divide the smoothie among small paper or plastic cups instead. Freeze until very thick, but not completely frozen, 1 to 2 hours. Insert frozen-treat sticks and continue freezing until completely firm, 4 to 5 hours more.
