Hello friends! It’s summer and this weekends weather forecast is calling for hot hot weather. To beat the heat we have been making our own popsicles. As a dietitian mom, I am always looking for a healthier option when it comes to feeding the girls.

I love making my own popsicles. They are so easy to make and a great way to add extra nutrients into your kids diet. These coconut mango pineapple popsicles are super easy to make with only 5 ingredients. The hardest part is waiting for them to freeze.

The coconut milk added a nice creaminess with a hit of coconut.
There is no better way to beat the summer heat than a cool, creamy and delcious treat like these coonut mango pineapple popsicels.
Place all ingredients in blender and blend until smooth. Place in popsicles molds and freeze for 3-4 hours
My kids eyes light up when they see homemade popsicles. If you are looking for more popsicle recipes try out these roasted strawberry and greek yogurt popsicles or these vanilla peach popsicles.
Happy Summer!
