Hello Friends,
Okay so if any of you are anything like me, then you have a massive sweet tooth. I honestly rarely crave chips, soda, or the oh so dreaded bread, but at least ten times a day I am wanting some chocolate of some sorts (dark chocolate that is, of course). However, this whole sweet tooth thing makes trying to eat clean rather difficult.
But don't worry friends, Angels sent from above known as: Pinkberry, Yogurtland, and Yumilicious, are here to help. I have recently become obsessed with frozen yogurt. Its the perfect treat, especially now during the summer on those long hot days. Its refreshing and yummy and the best part of all: if you plan it right, it actually is not too bad for you.
Now, just like every good thing, it has its bad parts. First, at Yogurtland and Yumilicious you make your own. It's basically a frozen yogurt buffett and comes with all the toppings. Therefore if you can't control yourself you might just end up with a treat worse than a big mac. Second, yogurt also comes at a price. It's not necessarily cheap but I definitely think its worth it.
However, if you are trying to eat clean, keep this in mind when putting together your dessert; Basic equals Better. They usually have a sugar free flavor or some sort so if you are going for less sugar that's a great option ( just beware of artificial chemicals you could be putting into your body). So when I go, I like to order either original flavor (which is very tart) or some sort of fruity flavor. Then when it comes to toppings, I try my best to stick to fruit and dark chocolate. Keep it clean and keep it simple. If i do this, my order almost always comes out to be under 200 calories and fairly low in sugar.
I know yogurt isn't a new "thing" by any means but I recently just remembered how much I love it! and I hope you love it just as much!
