This snack couldn't be easier, and that's why I love it. It takes a teensy bit of planning ahead and that's it.
You know in the yogurt section, you can buy those tubes of yogurt they sell for kids? Pick up a box - my favorite are the Stonyfield Farm YoKids Squeezers because they contain no corn syrup or gelatin. (Yes - I know they're for kids, but they still have protein and calcium).
When you get home, put them the whole box in the freezer. That's it - instant popsicle.
Why we love it:
Yogurt is great for your digestive system because of the enzymes in it. And eating a protein-filled snack is a much better choice than one that's high-carb because it'll give you energy and won't leave you feeling tired.
Fit's Tips: Eating it frozen is fun for you and for kids - try it instead of ice cream.

Are there any non dairy/soy alternative squeezable yogurts that anyone knows of? My son has a lactose intolerance.
1I love them and love that they have no gelatin , which is in So many things!! , Im a vegetarian ( I cheat with some dairy ) and im always looking for things like this ... yum
2I tried this snack and it is SO YUMMY. Only 70 calories, some protein and 10% DV of calcium. Not bad when compared to other snacks.
3Usually my sister and I pick up a box of Go-Gurt by Yoplait at the supermarket and put it in the freezer - super yummy and 80 calories, 10% DV Calcium per tube. Okay for kids and teens.
4Thanks so much for this tip - I love yogurt but am a lacto-ovo-vegetarian so I do not eat gelatin which is in most commercial brands of yogurt including Dannon and Yoplait.
5This is a great idea.
