Strawberry Rhubarb Yogurt Popsicles

  • 1 lb. strawberries, hulled and minced
  • 3⁄4 cup fresh orange juice
  • 1⁄4 tsp. kosher salt
  • 3 stalks rhubarb, trimmed and minced
  • 4 oz. plain 2 percent Greek yogurt
  • 1⁄2 cup honey, preferably orange blossom

Bring strawberries, juice, salt, and rhubarb to a simmer in a 4-qt. saucepan; cook until fruit begins to break down, 3–4 minutes. Let cool and, using a slotted spoon, transfer 1⁄2cup fruit to a bowl. Transfer remaining fruit mixture to a blender; add yogurt and honey and purée until smooth. Stir in reserved fruit; divide mixture between individual ice-pop molds. Freeze 1 hour, then insert a popsicle stick into each mold; freeze until pops are solid, about 3 hours more. To release ice pops from molds, briefly run the bottom of the molds under warm water.

Yield: 12 pops.

VERDICT: These turned out great--more strawberry than rhubarb, but good flavor and texture.  I also like the relatively simple ingredients and using up some rhubarb.  Keep!
