Cyndi’s Summer Yummies
A feel good treat.
Are you looking for a delicious and nutritious way of adding more fruit to your daily intake? Or perhaps you’re a parent looking for ways to feed more fruit to your kids in a fun way.
Try this. I might even replace the ice cream I consume with this (which are full of sugar and fat, and way too many calories)... This treat might help you get a slimmer waste line, and feel healthier all around. :)
The ingredients are for 2 servings
One large banana
One large apple
One yogurt
Two small squares of dark chocolate
Cut the apple and banana into bite size slices (or smaller sizes if you desire), then open a small cup of yogurt and pour them all into a bowl and mix it up a little bit. The final step is to cut the two squares of dark chocolate into small pieces and sprinkle them onto you’re fruits. Voila! You have created a decorative and yummy treat. In order to use this to replace your ice cream put the bowl in the freezer and let it freeze over night. Make sure you are using a freezer safe dish!

I choose the brands that I found in my pantry and fridge and it was delicious; however this recipe can be modified using a darker chocolate, a yogurt with less sugar, and more fruits.
I used Yoplait Light fat free strawberry yogurt, for the chocolate I chose Hershey’s special dark chocolate: 2 squares, I used a regular banana and regular apple.
