New Flavors Yogurt




Everyone knows that yogurt is good for you.
But it is quite often too sweet or (I'll be honest) boring.
It is great with some fresh fruit or granola.
But sometimes you just don't want to make anything. You just want something tasty and quick.
Lately I have been noticing new flavors of yogurt popping up in the dairy section of the grocery store. Yoplait has three new flavors that are just awesome. And even though they only come in the 99% fat free version, I ate them, and really can't tell that they are. They are delicious. Give em a try!


Here is another recipe from my Kid's Cookbook. I had created it just because those awesome flavors weren't available before.

Tropical Yogurt

Yogurt is very good for you, but can sometimes be too sweet or not the flavor that you like. That is why I usually like to make my own flavors, or lighten on the sweetness by mixing the flavored one with a equal amount of plain flavor. But if that flavor the you crave doesn’t exist here is a cool way to create it yourself.

Ingredients: Plain Yogurt, Tropical Juice Concentrate, Jam of Choice

Directions:

Scoop the plain yogurt into a bowl

Stir in a few teaspoons of the concentrate or jam

Taste to see if it is to your liking and enjoy!

Flavor Ideas

Guava, Passionfruit, Pink Grapefruit, Fig

Combinations of jams, like Raspberry and Apricot
