Lowfat Frozen Yogurt Recipe

Lowfat Frozen Yogurt Recipe
Nothing tastes better on a hot summer day than homemade ice cream. However, those who are struggling to look good in that bikini are not inclined to indulge since homemade ice cream is so high in fat and calories. This Four-Ingredient Fruity Frozen Yogurt tastes rich and decadent, but has only 2 grams of fat and 149 calories in a 1/2 cup serving. It’s also full of delicious fresh summer fruit.

Those lucky enough to own an automatic ice cream machine can make this delicious frozen concoction in 20-30 minutes. However, it can also be made by freezing the mixture in a shallow baking dish and beating it with a heavy-duty mixer. Both methods produce good results, so there’s no excuse to forego this guilt-free summer treat.

Since the limeade concentrate is frozen, it helps chill the mixture quickly. It will be surprising how fast this frozen yogurt goes together, and even more surprising how good it tastes.

4 cups fresh summer fruit, (peaches, nectarines, berries)
1 1/2 cups sugar
