Frozen Yogurt Recipes

I was glad to find this book. It has a few pages explaining the how and why of making frozen yogurt and a lot of good tips. Also, I like that they have several kinds of vanilla, so I can try different types of recipes and understand what kind of ingredients lead to the consistency that I like best. I'm still working through this.

This is a really fun book filled with a great recipes ideas. They have everything from chocolate, praline and many more.

When considering the health benefits of frozen yogurt versus ice cream most people immediately look at fat and sugar content. It's true, not all frozen yogurt is fat free and some can be high in sugar content, however there are several healthy frozen yogurts available, such as Yogurt Bar's organic frozen yogurts that are non-fat and low calorie. But what about the additional health benefits of frozen yogurt? Surely fat and sugar content is not all there is to consider.

One major health benefit of all natural frozen yogurts is the probiotic content. Frozen yogurt that contains live bacterial cultures promotes better digestion.
