Raspberry Mango Coconut Popsicles

July 14, 2020
Jump to Recipe·Print Recipe

Popsicles, for me, are quintessential summer. They taste like sunny days by the pool and staying up too late to chase fireflies. In essence, they feel like HAPPINESS and with that in mind, I think we all need more popsicles in our lives right now!

I recently asked my Instagram followers if they prefer creamy or fruity popsicles. Creamy pulled ahead in votes at the very end to just slightly edge out fruity. These popsicles are a hybrid of both – a little bit creamy and little bit fruity.

The best part is you can have your wine and treat too! These taste more decadent than they really are. Thes pops clock in at 125 calories, 7 grams of fat and 11 grams of all NATURAL sugar from fruit. The ingredients are simply raspberries, mango, dates, canned coconut milk and a touch of maple syrup. THESE my friends are the real deal – a popsicle that is made with healthy, wholesome ingredients but still feels like a treat. Tastes like happiness to me!

Don’t be scared off by the layers. I made these pops while simultaneously making dinner. You simply puree the first layer, put them in the mold and let them set in the freezer for about 15 minutes (while you go off and other things), puree the next layer, freeze, puree and then done!

Print Recipe

A healthy, whole food treat that are more decadent tasting than they really are. A little bit creamy and a little bit fruity.ย 

  • Author: Jeannine
  • Prep Time: 15 minutes
  • Cook Time: 8 hours
  • Total Time: 8 hours 15 minutes
  • Yield: 10 popsicles 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups fresh or frozen raspberries
  • 2 medjool dates
  • 1 1/4 cup full fate coconut milk (I used Trader Joe’s brand)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 2 cups fresh or frozen mango, diced

Instructions

  • Raspberry Layer: Take 2 pitted medjool dates and soak in boiling water for 10 minutes. Drain the liquid from the dates and puree with the raspberries plus 2 tablespoons of the coconut milk in a food processor or blender (I find that a food processor works better because the layers are not enough liquid for the blender). Split evenly among 10 popsicle molds (about 2 tablespoons each). Let freeze for at least 15 minutes (if you’ve used frozen berries) or 30 minutes if you’ve used fresh.
  • Coconut layer: Mix 1 cup of coconut milk, the maple syrup and vanilla. Add layer to molds (about 2 tablespoons each). Let freeze for 30 minutes.ย 
  • Mango layer: Puree mango with 2 tablespoons of coconut milk. Add to mold.ย 
  • Freeze pops for about 6 hours.ย 
  • To loosen pops molds, run under hot water for a minute.ย 

Notes

I used this popsicle mold I found on Amazon.ย

This is where I think so many high-achieving women in midlife get stuck....

We're used to believing that more effort + less calories equals better results. So when our bodies don't respond to that strategy anymore, we double down.

But here's what I wish I'd understood sooner: if your whole goal is just to burn calories, you aren't building anything that is gonna support your metabolism in a long-term.

If you want to build muscle, you need a plan that challenges your muscles progressively (Ps - that doesn't always mean lifting heavier weights, but we'll get to that in another post.) 

You need enough food to support that work. 

And you need recovery so your body can actually adapt.

It's not about abandoning cardio or never being in a calorie deficit. It's about understanding how all the pieces work together instead of treating each workout like a transaction for calories in and out.

**This is exactly what I help women do through Live Powerfully.**

We look at your nutrition, strength training, recovery, and the realities of your schedule to build a personalized health strategy that supports your goals without making wellness another full-time job.

Because you've already built a big life. Your health strategy should help you live it.

apparently, being in your 40s comes with a second full-time job: managing your health. Unpaid, of course.

It's exhausting just keeping up with all the things we're supposed to be doing. But here is what I wish more women understood: you don't need to optimize every aspect of your health to make meaningful progress. You need to understand which habits will make the biggest difference for your body, your goals and your life. And then find a way to do them consistently. 

That's a big part of what I do with my coaching clients. We cut through the endless wellness advice, focus on the fundamentals and build a personalized strategy that doesn't require health to become another full-time unpaid job. 

Because you've already got enough on your plate and we're still trying to remember why we walked into the room.

DM me if you're struggling and I can share my personal advice on your situation

Preparing nutritious meals doesn't have to be a part-time job.

Between work meetings, school pickups and kids' activities, is your lunch whatever you can grab in five minutes? A protein bar. A handful of crackers. Leftovers from your kid's plate. Or maybe you skip it altogether.

And then you're wondering why you're exhausted, craving something sweet at 3 PM and starving by dinner.

Here's the thing: You can't expect your body to perform at its best when you're consistently under-fueling it.
Especially in midlife, when getting enough protein to support muscle and enough fiber for gut and metabolic health becomes increasingly important.

But the solution isn't spending your entire Sunday prepping perfectly portioned meals. It's having a few easy, nutrient-dense options you can make once and eat on repeat.

You don't need more time. You need fewer decisions.
And that's exactly why I love this soup. ๐Ÿ‘‡

Makes 4 servings: 
1 small white onion rings(about 1 cup chopped)
1 tbsp olive oil
1 pound of chicken (or sub 12 oz rotisserie chicken and cut out the chicken cooking time)
1 jar salsa verde
4 cups low sodium chicken bone broth (I like Dr. Kelly Ann)
1 can (3.5 cups) low sodium white beans (I like white navy beans), rinsed
1.5 cups frozen brown rice
1/2 cup sliced green onion
1/2 cup cilantro
more green onion, cilantro for garnish. 

Heat a large pot over medium high heat. Add olive oil. Add onion and cook for 3-5 minutes. Add raw chicken to the pot. Pour in salsa verde and bone broth. Cover and cook over medium heat for 10 minutes. In the meantime chop green onion and cilantro.
Once chicken is cooked through, shut off heat. Shred chicken in pot. Add green onion, cilantro and brown rice. Turn back on heat. Cook over medium heat.

A healthier life doesn't happen when you finally have more time. It happens when you start making time for what matters.

Here's the shift I want you to make this week:
Stop treating your health as something you'll get to when everything else is done. A little intention at the beginning of the week can change how you show up for the rest of it.

Not because you need a perfectly organized life, but because you're making the decisions that support your health beforethe week starts making them for you.

This is a big part of what I help my coaching clients do. We turn knowing what to do into simple, repeatable systems that make taking care of themselves part of their lives, not another thing competing for their attention.

Your health doesn't need to take over your calendar. But it deserves a place on it.
