National Frozen Yogurt Day
February 6th is National Frozen Yogurt Day! Yes, I know it's the middle of winter and for many of you that means it's still cold outside. But even though it's freezing here in Utah, I can 't resist a delicious cup of frozen yogurt—it just tastes so delicious. In honor of National Frozen Yogurt Day, many businesses give away free frozen yogurt. That's right: free. So be sure to find out if any businesses near you are offering this delicious, mouth-watering treat gratis. Or you can make fresh frozen yogurt in your Blendtec blender. Try the following peach yogurt recipe, or check out the variations below if you're in the mood for a different flavor.

Hi Ruth,
Yes it’s best to loosen up the frozen berries instead of keeping the one big chunk, because the blender spends the timed cycle breaking up the frozen chunk rather than blending smoothly all of the ingredients to make a desirable product.
Thanks, Josie. Glad you’re enjoying the recipes!
If I win the Cookie+Kate contest, I’ll be making this frozen yogurt. Ice cream doesn’t suit my innards, but I can get away with yogurt.
Love my Blendtec. Would like to use it more for other fun recipes.
