Homemade blueberry frozen yogurt, fresh and refreshing!
Let’s just say frozen yogurt is a favorite here and perhaps I alone can keep not 1 but 2 frozen yogurt parlors open in this sleepy little town of Fallbrook. When I saw a recipe to make my own frozen yogurt I had to jump at the chance. But it is not just any frozen yogurt, it is fresh and refreshing blueberry frozen yogurt from fresh blueberries and Greek blueberry yogurt with just a little bit of sugar added.
And besides all that I discovered how easy it is to make my own frozen yogurt. I am ready to start experimenting with other flavors; what do you think should be the next one?
Did I mention this treat is healthy?
