Crafting a Healthier Cup of Fro-Yo
on Friday, January 22, 2016
Weary of frozen yogurt because you fear the calories that might be waiting for you? With frozen yogurt, the portion, the flavor, and the toppings you choose are all in your control.
Tips for a Healthier FroYo:
- Don’t fill your cup. You might feel silly for only covering the bottom of the container with one layer of frozen yogurt, but by keeping your portion size to a 1/2 cup, you’ll stay within a healthy calorie range. If they’re serving it for you, make sure you choose the smallest size.
- Load up on fruit. Many frozen yogurt places have fresh fruit to add to your cup. This is an excellent way to add some sweetness without the extra calories.
- If you want a sweet treat to add to your yogurt, choose one. For example, I love the combination of original frozen yogurt, strawberries, mango, and brownie bites. Remember that some toppings have up to 50 calories per serving which can add up quickly.
