Healthy Eats Friday- Frozen Chocolate Greek Yogurt

I was debating which Healthy Eats Friday recipe to post today.  I guess it's a good sign when I have more than 1 healthy recipe to choose to post.  I'm so proud of my husband and I for our efforts in changing our eating.  Other than being hungry ALL THE TIME from the amount of exercise, I feel really great limiting the amount of junk I put into my body.  Don't get me wrong, I'm not super strict.  Part of exercise it the ability to enjoy some of the sweeter things in life.  

I have a love of ice cream.  Since I've cut out buying ice cream at the store, I wanted to find a healthy alternative.  The 'pin' I found is pretty darn good.  I prefer it cold like frozen yogurt but the original pinner did keep it in the fridge for a pudding consistency.

For those of you who gave up chocolate for lent...sorry.  This does call for a bit of cocoa powder.

Pinterest Inspiration:

My Results:
6 ounces nonfat plain Greek Yogurt
2 tablespoons of unsweetened baking cocoa
Stevia or Truvia to taste

1. Add all ingredients to a bowl. 


 
2. Stir until smooth.
 
3. Put into the freezer for 30-45 minutes or longer.

4. Garnish with berries or eat plain.
