How to Make Veggie Popsicles
Although popsicles usually tend to be fruit flavored you can actually make some fantastic tasting veggie varieties.
Here’s how:
Carrot, sweet potato and apple popsicles
#1 – Place the sweet potato (with skin on) in a pot of boiling water and boil for 15 to 20 minutes (or until tender).
#2 – Remove sweet potato from water and run under cold water to cool. Remove the skin and place sweet potato in bowl. Set aside.
#3 – Peel the carrot and apple and chop into little pieces. Boil for about 15 minutes or until tender. Drain and add carrot and apple pieces to sweet potato. Reserve the liquid from carrot and apple boil.
#4 – Place all the ingredients plus half a cup of reserved liquid into food processor and whiz until smooth. If the mixture is not sweet enough then add a tablespoon of honey to sweeten to taste.
#5 – Pour the liquid veggie and fruit into popsicle moulds and freeze. Enjoy!
