105-Calorie Easy "Homemade" Chocolate Greek FroYo

It's HOT outside here in Houston, and my usual chocolate cravings are in overdrive. Today I discovered that I can make frozen yogurt using things I already had in my home...

Items Needed
  • Two trays of ice
  • 1/4 c. water
  • Salt
  • Gallon Ziploc baggie
  • Snack size Ziploc baggie
  • Stonyfield Farms Oikos chocolate greek yogurt, single-serve container (100 calories)
  • Almond milk or other liquid to thin (5 calories in 1/8 c. of almond milk)
Process
1. Empty Greek yogurt into snack-sized Ziploc bag. Add a splash of almond milk to the baggie and seal.
2. Empty two trays of ice into gallon-sized Ziploc bag. Add generous amount of salt and about 1/4 c. of water.
3. Place snack-sized baggie inside of the gallon-sized bag and seal.
4. Shake bags until the yogurt gains texture of ice cream/frozen yogurt.
5. Remove from bag and enjoy!

Greek Yogurt (comes in different flavors!)

Finished product being consumed... and greatly enjoyed!!!
