Kickin’ it with Kenny: The Dog Days of Summer: Frozen Treats

The following recipes were developed by Heinen’s chef and shared live on Kickin’ it with Kenny.

Blueberry Fruit-sicles

Makes 6 Popsicles

Ingredients

• 1 ½ cups fresh or frozen blueberries
• 1 ½ tbsp. Heinen’s honey
• 2 ½ cups vanilla yogurt, whole milk or reduced fat
• 4-6 Tbsp. Heinen’s milk

Instructions

1. Heat the blueberries and honey in a small saucepan over medium heat. Simmer for several minutes until the blueberries start to burst and release their juices. Mash them slightly with a fork, leaving some berries whole. Remove from the heat and cool.
2. Whisk the yogurt and milk together in a bowl. Use just enough milk to thin the yogurt to a pourable consistency.
3. Gently fold the cooled blueberry mixture into the yogurt. To retain a swirly pattern, do not over mix.
4. Pour the mixture into popsicles molds. Place popsicle sticks into the molds, cover and freeze overnight until solid.
5. To unmold, dip the popsicle molds in warm water and gently pull out the popsicles.
