A frozen yogurt treat

Ever get a craving for frozen yogurt? I do. It is so delicious. Well this year I started doing this thing, and it allows me to have a little bit of frozen yogurt, without adding up the calories.

Take a Yoplait yogurt cup...and freeze it!
When you feel like eating it, take it out of the freezer and let it thaw for maybe ten minutes.  It will be easier to eat when it is not an ice block.

There are so many flavors to choose from. There are also different kinds of textures--there are the whips, the thick and creamy, and the jello kind.  I have only tried the regular, but I am looking forward to trying them all.

This is really the perfect snack.

Another benefit is your yogurt will stay good for months in the freezer, rather than going bad after a week in the fridge.

Tomato Salad

Is a salad really a salad without the lettuce? You bet! More salads without lettuce.

This is and extremely easy meal to make and it is incredibly refreshing and delicious.

All you need is some tomatoes and some fresh mozzarella cheese.
Cut up the tomatoes and the mozzarella into medium sized cubes, and then mix the two in a bowl. Top with your favorite dressing (I recommend balsamic vinaigrette) or just eat it plain—it is delicious either way.
You could also put this salad in a wrap and eat it that way. It is quite a versatile meal.

Want some more? Try adding cucumbers, black olives or onions. (I can’t put onions in anything because my fiance hates them)

Enjoy this salad with a cool glass of iced tea!
