yogurt granita

lazy Sunday doing laundry, cleaning, and reading magazines...

In my July issue of Cookie Magazine they had a recipe for yogurt granita..
it looked really refreshing and easy..

1 quart of fresh strawberries.. (they said you could use frozen too..just thaw them)
2 cups of fruit yogurt ( I used Strawberry/Banana as that was what was in the fridge)

In a large bowl, smash the strawberries into the yogurt and stir it all togther..
Pour the mixture into a shallow metal baking pan and place in the freezer, uncovered for 1 hour..
easy enough
Remove the pan out of the freezer and break up any of the clusters...
Return it to the freezer and continue removing the pan and breaking up the clusters every half hour ..do this for about 2 hours.. (it needs to be completely frozen but make sure it is still scoopable)

Scoop and serve...
Man it was good..
Daddy and the kids inhaled it and said it was such a yummy treat after dinner..
loved that it seemed like ice cream to them but it was healthy..
