One of the best healthy treats that we’ve had is Greek Frozen Yogurt. This Mango Frozen Yogurt was delicious and I didn’t feel guilty for eating more than two scoops, and it was so light and refreshing on a hot day.
It’s been so hot and dry here in Utah, and of course we are outside most of the day, everyday. I am all about getting the housework, blogging, errands, and meals done every day, but I am also keenly aware that summer is magical to kids and I want them to be making memories with friends and family that will last a lifetime.
We’ve really enjoyed going to the park during the evening and just relaxing as a family. We talk about life, read stories, play on the playground and enjoy a delicious snack or treat. This one was easily packed with ice around it and enjoyed one evening. The kids devoured it, and while the husband wasn’t really a fan (he’s more an ice cream fan or Red Mango fan) I definitely love it.

I can't wait to try this! A friend and I have gone off sugar for the next 3 months, and since we're allowing ourselves to use honey and agave this would be perfect! One question, is the mixture of higher and lower fat yogurt just to make it creamier? Do you think it would turn out ok if I just used the nonfat? That's the kind I usually have in my fridge.

I got a new ice cream maker for Mothers Day. I love the idea of making some more healthy frozen treats, this looks great!!! Especially since the mangos look so good right now!
