While I’m all about helping kids learn to love their veggies, sometimes “hiding” them in a treat they already love is the way to go.

These refreshing pops get their sweetness (and they are sweet) naturally from bananas and berries. And while I snuck in some spinach for extra nutrition, believe it or not, you won’t even taste it. I’m confident because I tested these out on the pickiest of kids (and spouses), and they didn’t suspect a thing. The overwhelming response? Another ice pop please!
