Making Healthy Popsicles at home is as easy as whipping up a tasty tropical fruit smoothie!

Barlean's Healthy Popcicles #ad #popcicleparty

Thank you to Barlean’s for sponsoring today’s recipe. As always, all  opinions are my own. For more information, please see our Disclosure Policy.  #ad #Barleans #popsicleparty

When Barlean’s sent me a box of goodies for a #PopcicleParty, I knew that the recipe had to include strawberries! My daughter Olivia loves to eat them frozen right out of the freezer in the summertime, and I let her because they’re good for her, and, well, it’s hot.  Another thing I let her eat whenever are healthy popcicles – even for breakfast!  That’s because these popcicles are made with fruit, juice, and some healthy not-so-secret ingredients from Barlean’s.

Healthy Popsicles Start with Healthy Ingredients

However, I only promote things that I love and think you will love, too.  For more information, please see our Disclosure Policy.

I love using Barlean’s products because I know that they are amazing quality and have some many great health benefits for me and my family.  The Omega Swirls and Greens are the two products we use the most.  We make smoothies daily, and I have experimented with a lot of different products.  I always come back to Barlean’s because their products provide amazing nutrition with an unbelievably delicious taste.

OMEGA SWIRLS

Using Barlean’s Passion Pineapple Omega Swirl Fish Oil adds a little extra health benefit.  These Omega Swirls are a great way to get more Omega 3’s into your diet, especially for picky eaters!

“Barlean’s utilizes proprietary emulsification technology called Amplified Absorption™, which is designed to boost absorption and deliver significantly more nutritional value than standard supplements per serving.“

Best of all, they taste seriously yummy!  The creamy Omega Swirls are non-GMO, gluten free, sugar free with no artificial flavors, colors or sweeteners, but they are truly delicious.  There 14 varieties to choose from.  If you want to stick with a tropical flavor for your healthy popcicles, I’d recommend the Passion Pineapple that we used here, or one of these:

  • Mango Peach
  • Strawberry Banana
  • Piña Colada

If you love the Pineapple Passion Omega Swirl, check out our Pineapple Cranberry Smoothie recipe!

SUPERFRUIT GREENS

Barlean’s makes four varieties of powdered greens:

  • [amazon_textlink asin=’B0075005M6′ text=’Superfruit Strawberry Kiwi’ template=’ProductLink’ store=’jugactmam-20′ marketplace=’US’ link_id=’d1e0724e-93d3-11e8-9538-af6bb3d21716′] (used in this recipe for healthy popcicles)
  • [amazon_textlink asin=’B0075005AI’ text=’Chocolate Silk Greens’ template=’ProductLink’ store=’jugactmam-20′ marketplace=’US’ link_id=’d7300127-93d3-11e8-8a6d-6bbaf4f2ec7b’]

All of these are non-GMO, gluten free, sugar free, dairy free and completely vegan.

“Greens are fundamental for energy and detoxification, and provide you with powerful vitamins, minerals and antioxidants.”

You can add a scoop to water or juice, but our favorite way it to add it to a smoothie mixture.

When cousin Macie came over (another picky eater like Ethan!) she loved these healthy popcicles!

PRO TIP: For best results, be sure to let the pops freeze for the full six hours
