A woman that I work with gave me this recipe a few weeks ago. I finally got around to making it. It was super yummy. I made a few alternations to the original recipe. My girls ate this up. (Chris was out of town so I don’t have his opinion) but I [...]

Yummy New Yogurt

Posted by kristen

I have been on the lookout for WW’s new yogurts. I finally spotted two new flavors at Walmart. I was disappointed to see that they are only 4 ounce servings so it would only count as 1/2 of a dairy serving. I bought the Strawberry Shortcake. Very taste. Much thicker than the [...]
