This is super simple easy dessert. Strawberries remind me of summertime and grandmas house. Strawberries can provide you with essential nutrients! Just one serving of strawberries contains half of the daily intake of Vitamin C, which humans do not naturally produce. It has also been shown to promote eye health and aids in the prevention of cataracts. Not to mention they are so juicy and good tasting!

Recipe for Strawberry Fro Yo:

Place 1 Tablespoon honey into the food processor. 

Honey has plenty of health benefits. 

3 Tablespoons Honey

1. Having honey in your diet can help to decrease the risk of getting ulcers. 
2. Honey is a natural sweetener! So by adding this no extra sugar needs to be added!! 
3. When you have a sore throat or when you are not feeling well you can add a bit of honey to some green tea and it will help to improve your immunity. 
4. It helps to stabilize blood glucose levels naturally.
5. It also contains natural-friendly bacteria.

1/2 Cup Low-Fat Greek Yogurt

Next step is to add the yogurt to the processor. Yogurt also has good health benefits. Eating yogurt after a work out can help you recover much faster. It also has live, good bacteria, which kills the bad bacteria in your mouth, which causes bad breath. It is also a natural way to reduce your blood pressure.

There are 3 main differences between regular yogurt and Greek yogurt:

1. Greek yogurt has almost double the protein that regular yogurt has.
2. Greek yogurt also contains half the sodium of regular yogurt.
3. Greek yogurt contains roughly under half of the carbs that regular yogurt has.

Then add 1 Tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice.

Then add whichever fruit you want to have. The only caveat is the fruit must be frozen. This way we do not need to add any ice, which waters it down. Strawberries were used for this frozen yogurt, next

Before Blended

 Once all of the ingredients are in the processor. Turn it on low for about 45 seconds, then turn on high for about 4 minutes. Turning it off every once in a while, to push the frozen fruit to the bottom. It helps to keep it all one consistency!
