Green smoothie lights
Ingridients:
- 236 ml of milk or other alternative
- 30 g of fresh spinach
- 7 g of parsley
- 1 banana
- 2 kiwis
- 30 ml of honey
- 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
Preparation:
Blend the milk, spinach and parsley in a blender until smooth. Add banana, 1 kiwi, honey and ginger. Blend again until smooth and add honey if necessary. Peel and slice the kiwis, as you will be adding one or two to each light. Pour the green smoothie into popsicle molds, add kiwi and freeze for at least 6 hours.
Coffee lights
Ingridients:
- 2 cups of coffee
- 1 tablespoon of coconut oil
Preparation:
Pour the coffee into a blender and add coconut oil. Stir until the coffee becomes lighter and creamier. Pour into coffee molds and freeze overnight.
Yoghurt parfait lights
Ingridients:
- 3 cups sliced strawberries
- ¼ cup sugar or honey
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
- ¼ to ½ cup milk
- 2 to 3 tablespoons of honey
- ¾ cup granola
Preparation:
Combine strawberries and sugar or honey in a small saucepan and gently toss to combine. Allow the strawberries to soften in the sugar for at least 10 minutes to dissolve and become syrupy. Place the pan with the strawberries and sugar on a medium-hot hob and give it a quick light stir. Stir often, the berries should have a jammy texture (from 8 to 10 minutes). Remove from heat and let the mixture cool to room temperature. You can store such berries in the refrigerator for 1 week. Mix the yogurt, milk and 2 tablespoons of honey in a medium bowl. Yogurt should be thick but still runny. If necessary, add some more milk and honey to taste. Mix ¼ of the yogurt mass into the granola. This will help it freeze in the lights. Prepare 6 models for lights on the work surface. Pour a generous spoonful of yogurt mixture into the bottom of each mold. Add a spoonful of granola and then a spoonful or two of strawberries. Repeat the process until the mold is full. Sprinkle the molds a little and, if necessary, get rid of air bubbles between the layers with the help of a stick for lights. Place in the freezer for at least 6 hours.
Lights with strawberry milk and cereal
Ingridients:
- 1 medium or large banana (or 2 small)
- 1 cup Greek yogurt
- ½ cup strawberry milk
- ½ cup dry cereal
Preparation:
Make strawberry milk by taking a liter of milk, 1 kg of strawberries and some vanilla sugar. Clean, rinse and shake the strawberries in an electric mixer. Pour in cold milk, add vanilla sugar to taste and stir until the drink foams. Mash the banana with an electric mixer and mix until a smooth puree is formed (about 1 minute). Keep stirring and slowly add yogurt and milk. Mix until a homogeneous mixture is obtained. Add the cereal and mix by hand to avoid crushing the flakes. Pour into candle molds and freeze for at least 8 hours.
