Notes

Smart Shopping Tips

• Buying yogurt in large tubs is much cheaper than individual serving snack containers.
• Make your own yogurt snacks by buying a large tub of plain or vanilla yogurt and portioning it out into reusable plastic containers at home. Add fresh fruit or granola for flavor.
• Flavored yogurt can contain a great deal of sugar. Compare labels for a better choice.

Cooking & Serving Tips:

• Top with any fruit that you prefer. Other options include pineapple chunks, sliced bananas, kiwi, mango or peaches.
• Use plain yogurt to cut down on the sugar content. If needed, stir in a little bit of honey, but no more than 1 tablespoon.
• Make individual portions by coating the bottoms of small bowls with the graham cracker crust and topping with yogurt and fruit.
