Watermelon Popsicles

It's almost summer and what is more refreshing on a hot summer day than watermelon?  How about a watermelon popsicle?  I found this recipe on the Meal Makeover Moms website and just had to try it out.  It is so simple and great way to use up some of that extra watermelon that may be hanging around. 

1 1/2 c. watermelon
1/2 c. pomegranate/blueberry juice

Combine in a blender and then add to popsicle forms or paper cups with popsicle sticks inserted and freeze.

The Meal Makeover Moms recommend Welch's pomeganate/blueberry juice, but after reading some labels in the juice isle I decided to go with V8 V-fusion Light Pomegranate/Blueberry.  It has almost half the sugar and calories as the Welch's brand and is fortified with vitamins A, C and E.

There you have it, super simple, super refreshing and super yummy.

Enjoy!
