Cold & Flu Popsicles with Strawberries, Kale and Thyme
ingredients:
Yields 8 popsicles, depending on the size of your popsicle molds
1 lb strawberries, hulled and chopped
1/4 c honey
Juice of 1 lemon
Zest of 1/2 a lemon
1/2 c water
1/4 c plus 2 tbsp sugar, or to taste (depending on the sweetness of the strawberries themselves)
1 tbsp fresh thyme, chopped
1 tsp ground cinnamon
Optional: Pinch cayenne pepper
Pinch salt
1 packed cup fresh kale, chopped
Directions:
In a medium sauce pan, combine the strawberries, honey, lemon juice, lemon zest, water, sugar, thyme, cinnamon, cayenne, and salt. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring frequently.
Add the kale to the sauce pan and cook until it is wilted down. Reduce the heat to low. Process the mixture with an immersion blender or in a food processor, until smooth.
Note: If you would like to remove the seeds from the strawberries, use the immersion blender before adding the kale, and then strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve. You may then continue on with the recipe.
Allow the mixture to cool completely. Pour into popsicle molds and freeze until set, about 4 to 5 hours.
Enjoy and get well soon!
