What’s the perfect snack? Yogurt!
Why? Because yogurt has the ideal
carbohydrate, protein and fat ratio for steady blood sugar control to keep you
satisfied in between meals. The
carbohydrates also offer instant energy when you are experiencing mid-day energy
slumps. Yogurt contains calcium which is needed for strong bones, but it's also
needed to help blood vessels and muscles contract and expand, to send messages
through the nervous system, and to secrete hormones and enzymes.
Limit sugar in your diet by opting for
plain non-fat yogurt. Then add your own
fresh fruit to sweeten it up. Cinnamon
is also a great addition to yogurt. Make
a meal out of yogurt by adding granola and fruit.
My favorite yogurt combo is plain, non-fat Greek yogurt topped with ½ chopped
banana, blueberries, and homemade unsweetened granola.
You can also use yogurt in place of mayonnaise
and sour cream for dips and salad dressing.
Greek yogurt is the best choice because of the thick consistency and
high protein content.

I love yogurt! It is one of the healthiest and yummiest food! Have you heard of frozen yogurt? I bet you did. That’s another great way to enjoy this wonder snack. I treat my mom and kids occasionally in yogurt shops, and my, frozen yogurts are their top choice!
