There are many other great things about this healthy ice cream recipe! One being, that you can change it up almost anyway you want and it can be made in less than 10 minutes with very few and inexpensive everyday ingredients!
I tried the original version of this recipe from my fitness magazine, Oxygen.
It didn't turn out how I had hoped. It called for way too much extract and the plain greek yogurt was too bland. So here is my version along with some other varieties you can try. This recipe makes 2 servings.
