Hey kids!
It’s springtime and you’re probably spending a little more time outdoors being active and having fun. Being active means you’re burning more calories and you need to replace them with something hearty and filling like protein. But when you’re out in the hot sun, you want something to cool you off too.
Refreshing Strawberry Protein Pops are just the thing you need to cool you off, quench your thirst, and satisfy your hunger until dinner time. These are fun and easy to make and you can even make them ahead and store them in the freezer so they are already waiting for you to eat on the perfect day.
Just watch our video tutorial below to learn how fun and easy Strawberry Protein Pops can be!
