    Thank you for these delicious yoghurt recipe ideas. I’m a huge fan of greek yoghurt but my kids are not so fond of it and prefer the flavoured yoghurts so I was looking for fun and interesting ways to include greek yoghurt into their daily diet since I believe it is so much healthier than the flavoured options. I never thought of making waffles or pancakes with waffles – my kids will love that! I’m going to try your cherry cashew butter smoothie for sure, I love smoothies in the morning. It is the easiest way for me to get some goodness in early.
