Servings 30
Ingredients
- 30 5 ounce Dixie cups
- 2 cups boiling water
- ⅔ cup sugar
- 24 ounce frozen strawberries
- 6 ounce orange juice concentrate thawed
- 1 cup can crushed pineapple and juice
- 5 ripe bananas
Instructions
- Boil the two cups of water and stir in the ⅔ cups of sugar. Dissolve until the water is clear.
- Peel and mash the bananas in a large bowl. Then add in the orange juice concentrate and ½ cup of the crushed pineapple.
- In a blender, puree the most to all of the strawberries, ½ crushed pineapple, and the sugar water mixture. Pour into the bowl with bananas. Blend to just crush the rest of the strawberries. Add to fruit mixture and stir to combine everything.
- Line a jelly roll pan with dixie cups. Fill each cup to 1/2 inch the from the top. A large spoon works great for this!
- Once all the cups are filled, freeze them. Keep the pan level until the fruit freeze ups are frozen. Then bag them into gallon freezer bag to prevent frost burn. Take out the desired amount when needed and enjoy!
Notes
For easy eating try setting them out a few minutes before eating to thaw. We tend to microwave them for 15-20 seconds and they are perfect! Enjoy!
