Hello Everyone! Happy Funday (Monday)! Ok, well its a fun day for me, because its the first day of Spring Break, and even though I do have to work a few days this week. I will be enjoying a few days off with my little twerps, I mean kids!
Today I am happy to welcome Mandy from
Hello everyone, this is Mandy from The Household Hero! I am happy to be here at Allie's today! I love revamping recipes to make them healthier for my family, so today I am sharing with you a quick, simple recipe that not only do I love, but so does my toddler! If you like, please swing by my blog to check out other family friendly activities and recipes!
Oh pudding, how I love thee. But unfortunately I have forsaken foods that provide little nutrition while filling me up with junk. So pudding is usually not on the menu in our house. However, in attempt to somewhat experience the yumminess of a creamy, cold bowl of pudding provides I trick my brain with this: Chocolate Yogurt Pudding.
Luckily my son (he's 2) is currently unaware that there is anything but this type of pudding. In his mind he is probably thinking that pudding is good for him because the pudding he eats is. Despite the fact that most puddings you buy in the store are low in calorie, they are typically full of refined sugar and have little to no protein. So if you are in the mood for dessert or a sweet snack but do not want to eat junk then whip up this quick healthy treat!
What I used:
- Vanilla yogurt (it can be Greek or low fat...your choice)
- Cocoa
- Peanut butter
- Agave or honey
- Mixed all the ingredients together and
- Put in refrigerator to let it get real cold
- Enjoyed without any quilt!
Do you have a sweet treat that you like that is also good for you?
