Recipe of The Day: Strawberry Yogurt Pie


You want something easy and delicious? Something that won't add thousands of calories to your waistline? I've got just the treat for you! Something to satisfy your sweet tooth without the guilt! Yay!

I can't take full credit for this yummy pie. My Mom, (who always made us ALL kinds of different types of foods) made this. I think when I became an adult I asked her for the recipe. I was surprised at how simple the recipe was. Every now and then I get a craving for it. It's so easy to make, and it really takes no effort. Since we've been eating healthier these days. I thought about this recipe, and figured it would be the perfect treat for our healthy lifestyle. I used all low fat or lite ingredients. If you can afford to use the full fat versions then go ahead.


Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook TIme: None
Serving: 4-6 folks


Ingredients:
1 tub of lite whipped topping
1 large tub of lite or low fat yogurt (any flavor I used Strawberry)
1 Reduced Fat Graham Cracker Crust
5-8 Strawberries



Pour all of the yogurt and whipped topping into a large bowl. You can start mixing them together. Mix well.

Cut your fresh Strawberries. Keep a few to the side for the topping.

Add your Strawberries to Whipped Topping and Yogurt mixture. Mix well. Pour mixture into Graham Cracker Crust pie shell. You can even the top out with a spoon or butter knife.


Cut the rest of your Strawberries and place them on top of the pie like so. Or make any other kind of pretty design you want. Cover the pie with seran wrap and place in the freezer. Keep in freezer until pie is firm and not soft. It can be frozen. Before serving, set the pie out to soften a bit. You can also place it in the fridge an hour or two before serving.

This is also a great summer pie. It's cool and refreshing. You can use many different types of fruits. You don't have to feel guilty about eating this pie and it won't hinder your dieting efforts! Enjoy!

Guess Who's Coming To Our Town???


Our burrito dreams have finally come true!!! *burrito dance* Yay! Yay!

It has been confirmed that later on this year, Columbia will finally get a Chipotle! *faints* Woo hoo! They have already built a location up in Greeneville. We knew it was coming, just didn't have a date. I'm not sure if this had anything to do with the letter our friend Chris wrote to them. LOL But I cannot tell you how excited we are! You know how much we love them! Good thing they won't be to close, because all of our six packs and biceps may disappear! LOL

The aftermath after one of our many Chipotle excursions!
