I hate wasting food. With four kids it seems to happen around here a lot. One of our favorite morning meals is smoothies; we have them once a week. I always have just a small amount left over when we are done. For months I have been feeding it to the cat. A few weeks ago I came up with a great idea. I put what little smoothie is left into our popsicle forms.
When we have enough for everyone - we have "popsicles" for snack one day. My kids love them and no more wasted food. Here is my favorite part - Eliana doesn't like smoothies, or so she says, but she loves the frozen ones. I try to make sure she isn't around when I am pouring them into the forms.
