Do you feel like a casualty of weight loss?
 
Does this story sound familiar? One day your at work and when you climb to the top of the stairs it didn’t feel so easy. You  decide to lose weight and begin to exercise and eat well. Then at 9:00 PM one night that craving sneaks up on you and you give in and gorge yourself on ice cream.
 
What if I told you eating delicious dessert and losing weight doesn’t have to be so difficult? With proper preparation and simple kitchen tools you can easily create healthy, quick and delicious desserts without wasting your time in the gym!
 
There is a popsicle maker named Zoku (I’m in no way sponsored or receiving anything from them for this post) which can create a popsicle in about 7 minutes.  They store well in the freezer for when you need them. And the best part? The recipe I’m sharing with you is 85 calories, 6 grams of protein and packed full of flavor!
 
Follow along with these 3 easy steps to making one of my favorite popsicle recipes.
 

Peanut Butter Banana Dream

 


 
1) Place the Zoku in the freezer. We leave ours in the freezer at all times!
 
2) Combine the plain greek yogurt, honey, peanut butter and banana by hand or with a blender.

3) Pour the mixture into the Zoku up to the fill line, place the popsicle stick in and wait 7 minutes! Now is the time to squeeze in push ups, a plank, etc.
