Strawberry green smoothie pop — Sweet moments, naturally.

Ingredients

1 cup sliced strawberries
1 container yogurt (for the strawberry layer)
1 container fat-free Key lime pie yogurt
1 cup packed fresh spinach leaves
¼ cup apple juice

Directions

Make the strawberry layer.
Blend 1 container of yogurt with the strawberries until smooth. Spoon 2 tablespoons into each of 5 (5 oz) paper cups, cover with foil and push a craft stick through the centre of each. Cover and refrigerate the leftover mixture.
Freeze the first layer.
Freeze for up to 2 hours, until frozen.
Make the green layer.
Blend the Key lime pie yogurt, spinach and apple juice until smooth. Remove the foil, pour about 1 ½ tablespoons over each frozen layer, then replace the foil to hold the sticks straight. Cover and refrigerate the leftover mixture.
Freeze again.
Freeze for about 2 hours, until frozen.
Repeat the layers.
Add the remaining strawberry and green mixtures in layers, freezing at least 2 hours between each.
