It all started as a failed attempt at chocolate ice pops. One mistake turned into a supreme breakfast treat!
I mixed Amazing Grass Kidz Superfood Chocolate with milk and poured into ice pop molds. While they chilled, the powder sank to the bottom of the molds, making a thin gritty layer at the tip of each ice pop. Two year old tester did NOT approve. Neither did I. Yuck.
Back to the drawing board. I figured I'd put the pops into the blender and turn them back into a smoothie-like drink. Into the blender they went, along with frozen strawberries, half a frozen banana, and a handful of raw spinach. What happened next was sheer magic.
As I blended, the frozen ingredients slowly became the consistency of soft-serve ice cream. I had a "eureka" moment, stopped right there, and asked my two year old if she'd like to have ice cream for breakfast instead of a smoothie.
Boy, did her eyes open wide! "Really Mommy???"
Oh yes, sweetie! This breakfast ice cream is mom-approved, and filled with only the good stuff. Enjoy!
