Yogurt crunchies

DesdemonaRose

So, in a effort to eat a little better I've been "making" my own yogurt by adding fruit to plain Fage greek yogurt (not organic but it's super good). I was adding some gluten free cereal I picked up to try (made out of corn) but since I'm trying to do 30 days of Primal friendly foods I need something different to add. I tried cashews yesterday since I had some in the house but they were pretty bland. The only other crunchy foods I have all have oats in them.

So, is there anyone who eats yogurt and adds tasty things to it? If so what do you add? I want ideas! Primal friendly ones of course.

sliced/slivered almonds, chia seeds! i also like adding frozen fruit, gives it more of a consistency than just mushy yogurt.

I slice my bananas up, put them in the freezer, or use frozen blueberries.

Thanks for the recipie PrimalRunner, I will have to try that. I have never tried chia seeds by themselves either. I've probably bought suff with Chia seeds in it. I think I'll need to go food shopping tomorrow.

I just made this! Very good. I love honey and this gives me an excuse to eat something else made with honey

I love Lemon Curd! Trader Joes has a wonderful one but is made with sugar. Sub a regular recipe with Stevia and it's just as phenomenal as long as you're allowing egg yolks. Add some toasted coconut and almonds. Maybe a little coconut butter, aka Manna and, yum!
