Paletas de Piña y Arándano ~ Pineapple Blueberry Pops

I spent the weekend making salsa, small batches of salsa.  I get this way sometimes.  I crave chile and lots and lots of heat.  And I want to drizzle it on everything.  I almost laced my pancakes with it, but noticed the stare from my 7 yr old from the corner of my eye and contained myself.  I still think blueberry pancakes with salsa verde would have rocked!

Geez…  estas niñas. 

By the end of the weekend I had nibbled on a few tacos, a stack of tortillas chips and a few eggs all slathered in salsa when my tongue screamed for relief.

Paletas de salsa? Now that would be awesome.   Well… until I figure out how to make that recipe happen today we cool off with pineapple blueberry paletas, Enjoy!
