5-minute Frozen Yogurt

It has been extremely warm in the North of France lately.  So I feel the NEED to have cold desserts. I've given up on store bought ice cream. (who likes emulsified soy lecithin fat in their ice cream?).  Here's a nice way to enjoy low-fat-cheapy-easy frozen yogurt without an ice cream maker in 5 minutes.  It requires no cooking. (and my husband did all the work).

When the stawberrries are on sale why not buy some extra and freeze them. You can use any frozen fruits.

Ingredients:

250 g of frozen stawberries (must be frozen)

2 table spoons of condensed milk (optional)

2 table spoons of sugar (more if you like it sweet)

1 cup of low fat yogurt (or your favorite yogurt)

Put your frozen fruits in the food processor and add all the rest of the ingredients.  Blend until it gets homogeneous.  If you want the fro-yo to be more firm, let it rest in the freezer for an hour.

 

Tada! healthy frozen yogurt.

Middelburg and Zeeland, NL

What to do when it's warm and sunny on the weekend?  We get up early and go to Middelburg.  It is only 2h30 drive from the North of France. We have been there so many times that we have developped habits :
-Sipping a cassis cola "en terrasse", in the centre of the city
-going to the garden centre for plants, where you can get orchids for less than 5 euros
-stock up on dutch food
- lazying on the beach
-and sometimes renting bikes and enjoy a nice ride by the sea

The Zeeland province is bordered by the sea and it is a quiet place to rest and get away from a french stressful life.

We rarely travel in France nowadays.  Especially during the holiday periods.  Highways (with expensive tolls) are jamp-packed with French, Dutch and Belgians heading down South of France.  We avoid all of this and enjoy Zeeland.
