I made the BEST popsicles today!!

The recipe is from "The Eat Clean Diet for Family and Kids" book.

See the recipe below.

I subbed Chai protein powder because I didn't have any vanilla.

I subbed raw wildflower honey for the agave, since I always have the honey in my pantry.

For the frozen berries, I opted for raspberries, and added a tiny bit of real vanilla to combat the strong raspberry flavour.

It was SUPER easy to make, and SUPER tasty!  I've been wanting a frozen smoothie popsicle for a while now--most of what is sold out there has tonnes of processed sugar in it, which of course is something I'd like to avoid.  They're also very expensive to purchase, so this cheaper and tastier and healthier version is a winner!
