Orange Rhubarb Popsicle

orange rhubarbOrange Rhubarb Popsicle

My family love the color, beauty, and taste of rhubarb, but sometimes it’s difficult to find enough uses for it.  We’ve created a wonderful popsicle using the bounty of summer, orange and rhubarb.

If you don’t have popsicle containers use paper cups.  Fill them up and stick them in the freezer for about half an hour, just till they get slushy, then place a wooden stick in the middle of the cup and freeze until solid.  Peel the cup off when you’re ready to eat.

Orange Rhubarb Popsicle Ingredients:

  • 6-8 rhubarb stocks
  • 1-2 oranges
  • ½ cup water
  • ½ – ¾ cup honey

Directions:

  1. Cut rhubarb into 1-inch pieces.  Peel and chop oranges, leaving a little pith.
  2. Heat honey and water in 2 quart sauce pan, stirring consistently until well incorporated.
  3. Add rhubarb and oranges.  Simmer  uncovered until rhubarb is tender and slightly transparent, about 10 minutes.
  4. Pour mixture into blender and blend until smooth.
  5. Pour mixture into popsicle containers or paper cups.  Freeze.

Kellie's philosophy is that there is no one-size fits all diet. Because of bio-individuality (each one of us is different), most diets will work for some people and not for others. We need to eat nutrient dense, whole foods that have been properly prepared - real food, as close to the form it was originally grown/raised in, prepared in a way that preserves or even enhances the nutritional value of the food.

 

She believes that it is important to investigate how the body is using the food as well as understanding what is happening in the bigger context of an individuals life.  She knows that we are obviously more than what we eat and that can have a very big impact on how the body deals with food. Kellie helps her clients identify and move toward their personal ultimate health goals.
