Mango Chile Lime Ice Pops

Easy 4 Ingredient Mango Popsicles and there's a secret ingredient inside to give it some SouthWest flavor!

Have you ever tried a fresh mango on a stick with some chili powder sprinkled on it? They are pretty delicious and that is where I got the idea to make these popsicles from. Fresh mangos can be kind of a pain to cut and can be hard to find fresh. That is why I chose to use frozen mango chunks in this recipe. You can find them in the freezer section of most grocery stores. Add in some chili powder and lime juice or if you think the taste of chili powder sounds weird just skip it! 

Points for Blended Fruit

According to WW themselves, sorbet and banana ice cream is still zero points. Want to know why? Find out reading this article. Basic 0 Points Banana Ice Cream.  

Smoothies or juice you’re drinking will not promote the same amount of fullness between meals as eating fruit might. Whereas here when you are eating the banana ice cream with a spoon or licking a popsicle. You are experiencing the act of eating, and are less likely to over-indulge. - From WW Canada site.

Ice Pop Molds

To make popsicles you will need an ice pop mold. I really like this one from Prepworks by Progressive. To get the popsicles out of the mold, all you need to do is run them under warm water for a couple of seconds and they will pop right out of there. This is the easiest method I’ve found that works for storing homemade popsicles.

Popsicle Sticks

In order to get the popsicle out of the molds, you will need a popsicle stick for something to grab on to. They can be found at any store that sells crafting materials like Michael’s, Hobby Lobby, or Wal-mart and they might even have a package that doesn’t include 200 of them! I looked on Amazon for popsicle sticks and that was all they seemed to have was a package of 200 or more WTH? lol
