Well hello friends! I hope everyone had a fabulous weekend! I figured before I shared the back to school treat for the kiddos later in the week, yes back to school, I know it stinks, I needed to soften the blow with a really yummy frozen treat! So today, it’s all about these delicious Blueberry Vanilla Swirl Popsicles!
Let’s let the kids have one last hurrah and eat as many as they want! Is it a deal?? Great! Because soon it will be homework, homework and MORE homework! So for now, let’s have it be popsicles, popsicles and MORE popsicles! We can actually trick them with these, because they aren’t only tasty, they are good for them too! They are loaded with that wonderful fruit, the blueberry! I am big, big, big on blueberries! Come on, you know…the highest anti-oxidant capacity of all the fruits! Oh yeah! It’s all good when we eat blueberries!
Well, these popsicles are not only loaded with those good for you blueberries but I’ve also added some honey for sweetness and my favorite Chobani Greek yogurt. I have always loved Chobani Greek yogurt because it’s not only dee-lish but because it’s made with only natural ingredients including natural sweeteners and less sugar.
So let’s hold on to summer as long as we can and enjoy these yummy good for you popsicles! They are the perfect summer frozen treat and will be that special after school snack before the kiddos dive into all that homework! Enjoy the week guys!

Blueberries are my favorite berries and I eat them all the time. However, if I made your popsicles, I probably would eat more. They look healthy and refreshing, just right for the heatwave we have .

I love my blueberries too Gerlinde! I have a hard time stopping at one of these popsicles! Before we know it it will be back to some cold weather, so I’m going to savor the warmth as long as I can! Enjoy your week!

Thankfully I don’t have to go back to school, BUT I still feel like I deserve a yummy frozen treat. Preferably THIS Popsicle. Twice daily! ;) These look seriously scrumptious, Mary Ann! I LOVE that you added honey and greek yogurt! Perfection! Plus the layered, swirly beautiful colors are so fun! These are winning in the popsicle summer fun department for sure! Pinned!!

My husband’s favorite is blueberries! He would be very happy if I made a batch of these scrumptious summer treats for him!

Please do! I think he’ll love them!
Jennifer @ Seasons and Suppers
So pretty! We’re in the middle of a heat wave here, so these are especially welcome :)
Mary Ann
Thanks Jennifer! We are too! I’ll take the heat wave because in a few short months we will be missing the warm sun! Have a great week!
Rachelle @ Beer Girl Cooks
Those popsicles are so purple-y gorgeous! I’m so glad I don’t have to go back to school and can sit around eating blueberries and popsicles instead!

I love it when treats are health food! These are gorgeous, Mary Ann… and I love the ingredients you’ve used to make these creamy, sweet and taste like just like Summer. I’ve not made blueberry pops yet, but am looking forward to trying your recipe out – you know I can’t get enough right now! I’m sure your kiddos love these for after school treats. I know I would! Just beautiful!
Mary Ann
Me too Traci! We are having a little heat wave here so these are hitting the spot! Enjoy your week!

I love, love, love blueberries. I usually stock up during the summer and freeze a bunch to last me through winter. Looks like I’ll have something new to do with extra blueberries :) These looks absolutely fabulous!

They’re my favorite too Maryanne! Thanks so much and have a great week!
