There's nothing better on a hot summer night than something cool to eat or drink! One of my favorites is frozen yogurt. And, with summer strawberries so juicy and delicious, there's absolutely nothing better than homemade strawberry frozen yogurt. There's something about making it myself that helps me connect with how fresh and good homemade food can be. Yes, an ice-cream freezer is needed.
I was the cookbook editor for Betty Crocker's Cookbook (affectionately known as "Big Red") several years ago. To complete my desserts chapter, I created a very simple recipe for frozen yogurt: fresh berries, yogurt, and a touch of sugar. I hope you give this recipe a try, now called Very Berry Yogurt, since either strawberries or raspberries can be used. (Hmm, I've not tried it with blueberries.) And, if you've never tried banana frozen yogurt, that variation is GREAT, especially when drizzled with a little warm peanut butter (crunchy) that's been thinned a little with milk.
Give the recipe a try and let me know what you think!
