Frozen Orange Creamsicle Snacks

Talk about a major bummer. That massage I was so pumped for this morning? Yeah…well I completely had my dates wrong. As it turns out, the appointment is set for next Friday, not this Friday. Can I tell you how much of an airhead I felt like walking out of there. Good grief.

BUT, not all was lost on my scatterbrain…I used the extra time as an opportunity to get in another yoga session! A lovely 40 minutes with the dear Chris Freytag and her 10lb. Slimdown Xtreme Yoga, and I am feelin’ better already!

Now, I think it’s time to go find myself something for lunch, but since I’m still undecided, I wanted to share a little snack that I’ve been enjoying this past week…

A few weeks ago, I was reading my pal Lindsay’s blog and came across a post of hers for Chocolate Dipped Frozen Yogurt Bites. As I read along and continued to drool over these delicious, frozen snacks that were staring me back in the face, I realized that this was absolutely genius.

Two of my favorite things – Chobani and granola – paired into one frozen treat? Incredible.

So last week, I got to work on making my own special Orange Creamsicle frozen yogurt bites. Mmmm hmmm.

Thanks to the lovely Lauren, I recently got hooked me up with a bag of Nuts About Granola in a flavor I had never even imagined…orange creamsicle.

I’d been snacking on this stuff for a few days, and I can honestly tell you that the stuff really does taste like orange creamsicle. It’s unreal. And insanely delicious.

So then I thought about Lindsay’s frozen yogurt bites…and then I realized I had a couple containers of Chobani blood orange in my fridge.

And from there, I got to work.

Two containers Chobani blood orange + 1 cup Orange Creamsicle granola.

Two mini-muffin pans (since I didn’t have ice cube trays).

Portioned out, frozen…

…and voila! A delicious, healthy, sweet, frozen snack that’s perfect for anytime of day.

I’ve been snacking on these little guys throughout the week, and they’ve been perfect with all this heat we’ve been having.

I thought about dipping them into some chocolate like Lindsay did, but ultimately decided to keep ‘em naked. Either way, they’re delicious, Lindsay is a genius, Lauren is awesome for sending me this granola, and I am a happy camper eating some tasty frozen treats.
