I know this is hard to believe, but we do get tired of cookies!! After all, it is a job.

 

We thought we’d share some of our favorite things during our “off” hours!

      Frozen Yogurt Treats

32 oz Plain Non-Fat Yogurt
2 Tbsp Natural Peanut Butter
2 Tbsp Agave/Honey

1 mashed ripe Banana*

Mix in a blender or food processor and pour into ice cube trays or lined mini muffin trays. Freeze. Makes approximately 48. I place one in the dogs bowl and they lick them until gone.

You can add any of your dogs favorite flavors to this recipe instead of PB.

I make Carrot, Mint, Cranberry, blueberry...all of the cookie flavors! And what is better than cookies

and ice cream?

Enjoy~

*Hint - when your bananas are turning brown, throw them in the freezer and they are perfect for this recipe when you need them!

Awesome Oatmeal Squares

Mix together:

 

3/4 cup roasted  peanuts

2.5 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
2 cups puffed rice

1/2 cup dried cranberries

1/2 cup natural peanut butter
1/2 cup Agave
1 teaspoon vanilla

1/2 cup carob chips

 

Toast peanuts, oats and puffed rice in oven at 200F for 15 min then pour in a large bowl with cranberries.

Whisk the peanut butter, Agave  and vanilla in a medium microwavable bowl and heat on high until mixture is bubbling, about 1 to 2 minutes.

Pour peanut butter/Agave mixture into the large bowl and mix thoroughly. Let cool slightly and then add carob chips.

Press the mixture into a 9 x 13-inch baking pan coated with cooking spray.  Cover the mixture with a sheet of wax or parchment paper and evenly distribute in the pan.

Let cool and cut into bite size squares.

Plain Yogurt

We go through a lot of yogurt. Especially, once we learned it helped Sandy’s yeasty ears! We all have a scoop for breakfast  to keep us healthy.  It makes great frozen yogurt for people too!!

1 gallon fat free milk

1 cup non fat plain yogurt

1 cup non fat dry milk

Heat the milk in a double boiler over medium heat to 200 degrees. Remove from heat and cool to 100 - 110 degrees. Turn crock pot on to “warm” setting.  Combine 1 cup of the cooled milk with the yogurt and dry milk, whisk together. Pour the mixture into the milk mixture and mix well.  Pour into the pre-warmed crock pot and turn to off. Wrap with a towel and let set. Do not disturb and  for 8 hours or overnight. You will have fresh warm yogurt for breakfast! Top with some fresh fruit for an added treat.
