Strawberry and Mint Yogurt Popsicles

Fresh strawberries are in season and the mint I planted four weeks ago are ready for first harvest. I also have a jar of organic honey I bought from a local bee keeper. They make a perfect healthy breakfast on top of Greek yogurt. BUT why not kick it up a notch and make popsicles out of it!

While doing the pictorial for this post, I finished a popsicle already. It's refreshing, creamy, and tangy without worrying about the calories! A perfect alternative for ice cream ....
