I participated in Mom Blog Tour Winter Fancy Food Show (#MomBlogTourFF) on behalf of Wendy’s Bloggers. I received Real California Milk products to facilitate my review, but my opinions and the recipe are my own. I was hoping today was going to be a beautiful day, just like yesterday. True, the weather report said it would be cloudy, but I tend to be skeptical of those! Well, it turns out they were right… We did squeeze a dog park visit, as we are trying to show Lola lots of attention before baby madness starts in August, but we devoted the rest of the day to cleaning the fridge and freezer. That’s when I realized I have a frozen mango obsession as there were FOUR bags in my freezer! Oh, what to do with so many mangoes? Mango Frozen Yogurt, of course!
The beauty of using frozen mangoes is that you can make this Mango Frozen Yogurt all year long. They scream summer and sunshine, but if you’re anything like me, your ice cream/froyo cravings are not tied to any season. Another advantage is that you get to serve it right away, if you’re into soft serve. I usually like it to let it set in the fridge for at least 6 hours, but Tim and I couldn’t resist having a little right out of the food processor and it was fantastic! Once we got back from the park, our Mango Frozen Yogurt was ready and waiting for us. Oh what a great healthy treat! It definitely made up for the lack of sunshine. I used honey for a touch of sweetness, but I’m planning on making this again using splenda so I can have it as often as I want in my sugar free/low carb diet.
As for the yogurt, my choice was plain Greek yogurt made with Real California Milk. California is the country’s leading producer of milk, ice cream, butter, nonfat dry milk and whey protein concentrate and is the second largest producer of cheese and yogurt. Whenever you shop for dairy products, make sure to look for the Real California Milk or Cheese seal. That way you know that these products are made with 100% real California milk and come from family owned dairy farms who raise happy cows! ?
So next time you are craving something sweet and refreshing to cool off from the summer heat, instead of chasing the familiar music from Mister Softee’s truck (I have a feeling only New Yorkers and New Jerseyans will understand this reference), grab these simple 3 ingredients and make yourself some awesome Mango Frozen Yogurt. Because homemade is always so much better!
