Strawberry Frozen Yogurt

This month's Secret Recipe Club assignment was Gloria's blog, Canela Kitchen. One thing I absolutely love about her blog is that she writes all of her posts in both English and Spanish. So cool, right? Gloria lives in Chile, so I love reading about her culture and the different types of food that she eats/cooks with. It's fun being able to read about someone who lives in another part of the world and to get a glimpse into a different style of cuisine. I definitely suggest checking her blog out!
I was absolutely drawn to this frozen yogurt recipe the instant I saw it. Chris and I often walk to our local frozen yogurt shop since it's a sweet, satisfying and guilt-free treat that we both really enjoy. Being able to make it in my own home sounded right on point for our lifestyle, and it definitely didn't disappoint. It is creamy, light and fruity. It was perfectly refreshing on a warm spring evening. I will be making this again this summer and maybe even trying it out with different types of berries. Enjoy!
