If you are looking for a sweet treat or dessert, then you will love this recipe for a Pomegranate-Pistachio Parfait Popsicle that I shared on KOIN AM Extra. Not only is this the perfect 1:1:1 dessert made with protein (Greek yogurt), carbohydrate (pomegranate juice), and fat (pistachios), it is also a colorful, healthy treat with so much goodness With NO added sugar, these popsicles are also rich in antioxidants from the pomegranate juice. Three simple ingredients and ONE perfect popsicle!
