(Courtesy of Taste of Home)

Ingredients:
3 c. chopped fresh or frozen rhubarb (1/2 inch pieces)
1/4 c. sugar
3 Tbsp. water
1 c. (8 oz.) strawberry yogurt
1/2 c. unsweetened applesauce
1/4 c. finely chopped fresh strawberries
2 drops red food coloring (optional)

Directions:
In a large saucepan, bring the rhubarb, sugar and water to a boil.  Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 10-15 minutes or until mixture is blended and thick.  Cool.  Set aside 3/4 c. (save the remaining rhubarb for another use).

In a large bowl, combine the yogurt, applesauce, strawberries, reserved rhubarb mixture and food coloring (if desired).  Fill molds or cups with about 1/4 cup fruit mixture; top with holders or insert a popscicle stick into each cup.

Note~ If using frozen rhubarb, measure rhubarb while still frozen, then thaw completely.  Drain in a colander, but do not press liquid out.
