So I was bored today and decided to try an experiment. Since hot cocoa mix was buy one get one free last week, I had quite a few packets to spare. I also had a big tub of plain greek yogurt sitting in my fridge. For some reason I randomly decided to try mixing the two since I hate the taste of plain greek yogurt. I mixed one envelope of cocoa mix into one cup of yogurt. It tasted pretty good as it was but then it occurred to me I should try to freeze it, then it would be like ice cream. So I split it into half cup servings and popped it into the freezer for a few hours. Well, let's just say the experiment was a success. It was delicious! The stats aren't bad either.
The store I was at didn't have any of the diet cocoa mix left when I was there, so imagine if you used that instead! I just thought it was a really simple somewhat healthy little treat that was too good not to share. (: Enjoy!

Thanks for the idea!
I tweeked it a little. I used protein powder and added a scoop of my super foods powder to it. It tasted pretty good unfrozen when I taste tested it. Hopefully it will be frozen by the time I get back from the gym and make dinner. It will make a nice desert for a couple nights=D0 -
