Ingredients
  

2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and chopped

1 cup Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla flavor)

1/4 cup rolled oats

2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (adjust according to your sweetness preference)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice

A pinch of salt

Optional toppings: granola, chia seeds, or sliced fruit for garnish

Instructions
 

Prepare the Strawberries: In a blending container, combine the chopped strawberries. Blend them until smooth, but consider leaving a few small chunks for added texture if you like a bit more bite.

    Mix the Base Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, rolled oats, your choice of honey (or maple syrup), vanilla extract, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt. Stir the mixture thoroughly until all ingredients are well incorporated and the mixture is smooth.

      Incorporate Strawberries: Carefully fold the blended strawberries into the yogurt mixture. Aim for a marbled effect—gently swirl them in rather than fully mixing them to maintain a lovely pink appearance throughout.

        Fill the Molds: Pour the yogurt-strawberry mixture into popsicle molds, leaving about a half-inch of space at the top to accommodate any expansion as they freeze. If you'd like to add optional toppings, sprinkle a small amount of granola, chia seeds, or sliced fruit into the molds before filling them with the mixture.

          Insert the Sticks: Once the molds are filled, carefully place the popsicle sticks into the center of each mold, making sure they are upright and balanced.

            Freeze the Pops: Cover the molds with a lid or plastic wrap. Place the molds in the freezer and let them freeze for at least 4 to 6 hours, or until they are completely solid.

              Unmold and Serve: To remove the pops, run warm water over the outside of the molds for a few seconds to help loosen them. Gently pull the pops out and enjoy them immediately for a refreshing treat!

                Store Leftovers: If you have any leftover pops, transfer them to a freezer-safe bag or container to keep them fresh for up to two weeks.
