Kiwi lime Popsicles: Kristen Massad

Kiwi lime frozen treats: Kristen Massad

Happy spring! We have much to look forward to this time of year — spring cleaning, beautiful weather and delicious fruits and vegetables. We are so lucky to live in Texas, where we can go outside and enjoy the season. When the beautiful weather comes around, I always crave Popsicles. And why not make them full of fresh fruit? Frozen treats are one of the most versatile snacs and can be made with fresh and seasonal fruits and vegetables. Kiwi-lime treats are perfect to kick off spring and to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day. They’re so simple, and they’re sweet enough for kids and adults.
