Breakfast of Champions (and, no, this is not about Frosted Flakes)


Hmmmm, what for breakfast?

the milk went bad yesterday so that kind of limits my options.
Lord knows i oughta eat more eggs but i need something just a little less laborious at the moment. ok, a LOT less. i need something NOW.

how about a popsicle??!
why, yes, i think i will


"really???!", you might say...

YES, this isn't just ANY popsicle...
HERE'S the recipe.
SUPER easy... and, yes, they really do turn out looking that cool

NOTE:
i pretty much always find some kind of modification to apply to the recipes i find to make them healthier.


here's what i do with this one:
1. omit the sugar, add a bit of vanilla flavoring
2. for yogurt, use
*PLAIN (vanilla flavoring ^ adds enough without added sugar of vanilla yogurt),
*GREEK variety (a LOT more protein, less sugar),
*0%-2% milk fat.
***i like Chobani or Cabot brand (less expensive and as far as i'm concerned just as good)




FRUIT? check!
PROTEIN? check!
YUMMINESS? check!



on a side note, these are also a great substitute for an ice cream dessert ;)
