Beetroot Kulfis

Delicious and healthy! These Beetroot Kulfis are my entry for @hafele_india’s “Super Mom Super Food Challenge.” I chose to use beetroot because it is one of the most common, yet underrated superfoods. Beets are naturally packed with vitamins, minerals, antioxidants as well as micro and macronutrients. And they are easily available throughout the year. However, it can be a challenge to get kids to eat them. These frozen treats are a fun way to enjoy this nutritious superfood. They are easy to make with only a handful of simple ingredients. And they aren’t just pretty to look at, they also taste so good even picky eaters are sure to love them.
