Yogurt covered blueberries

  take two cups greek yogurt honey flavor and one carton fresh blueberries. Stick a berry with a toothpick and dip/swirl in the yogurt cup and use a second tooth pick to pu**** off onto a cookie sheet. Do all of them and place in the freezer. After an hour you can pop them off the cookie sheet and into a plastic baggie

Needless to say - I don't have anything to do at work and pinterest is getting a work out.

Hello from a fellow Pinterest addict.    Have you seen the frozen greek yogurt 'kisses'?  You just drop a little of the yogurt onto a cookie sheet and freeze, then it's a nice little frozen treat.

yes I saw that one.  However, I'm not a big greek yogurt fan because it tastes to bitter for me.

But I do like the idea of dipping fruit pieces in yogurt & freezing them.  That might cut the bitterness down some.

I saw them do blueberries, strawberries, & bananas.  I bet you could do any fruit though.

It's natural sugar, not added sugar.

 If you add a few drops of vanilla extract and a dash of stevia powder to greek yogurt it loses its bitter taste and tastes like vanilla yumminess!
