Frozen Yogurt Treats

 

32 oz. Plain nonfat yogurt

1/3 Cup Peanut butter

3 Ripe bananas

5 Fresh strawberries, diced small

 

Put the yogurt into the bowl of a mixer.  Add peanut butter, bananas and strawberries and whip for 3-5 minutes.

 

Portion mixture into freeze-able containers according to the size of your dog, cover, and place in freezer for a minimum of 4 hours. 

 

All servings should remain stored in the freezer up until serving time, at which point you uncover and serve.

 

*Notes

·        if you have bananas that have gone past the point where you believe you’ll ever eat them, toss them into a freezer bag or container.  These come in handy for this type of recipe as well as for smoothies and banana bread.

·        Blueberries can be substituted for strawberries in this recipe, but I recommend at least halving the berries rather than leaving them whole (even though they’re small)

·        I strongly recommend using all natural peanut butter which is nothing but ground up nuts.  Your dog’s body has no need for the emulsifiers and sugars that are added to other peanut butters.
