Keep cool

A quick post for a quick recipe guaranteed to keep you cool during our long hot summer - frozen yoghurt!  Two or three ingredients and a blender, that's it. And yes, before you ask, I borrowed this from Jamie Oliver.

Berry Frozen Yoghurt
1 packet (350 - 500g) of frozen mixed berries (straight from the freezer)
1 tub (500mL) Greek/Plain/Vanilla Yoghurt
1 - 2 tablespoons Honey (optional)
  1. Place the frozen berries in the blender.  Add all the yoghurt.  Blend till combined.
  2. Taste and add a bit of honey if it's too tart.  This will depend on the mix of berries you choose and the sweetness of the yoghurt.
  3. Pour immediately into a container with a lid and put straight in the freezer.  
You can eat this straight away or later after it's really frozen. However, due to the high water content of the berries, it does freeze really hard if left over night before using, so will need to be left to soften a little before serving.

Other ideas
Try Mango and lime instead of berries.
Add a leaf or two (no more) of mint to the berries when you are blending it up.
Serve with mini pavlovas or fruit salad.
Pour into some ice cube trays, ice block or small jelly moulds, to add to drinks, smoothies etc.
Eat straight from the blender???
