It is Spring Break this week and thankfully the weather is beautiful! I plan to spend as much outside as possible with the kids. Yesterday I took the kids out to scooter and bike around the neighborhood. We’re in the process of teaching my son how to ride without training wheels. It has been a process, but I think we are finally hitting the home stretch. I thought it would be really fun to bring a snack with us to enjoy after a session of bike riding.

I packed up a lunch box with some Yopa! Greek yogurt and some spoons. After many times of coasting down the hill, pushing the bike back up the hill, and then coasting back down again it was time for our snack.

I have been using Greek yogurt in recipes for quite some time now as a healthier alternative to mayonnaise and sour cream. This was the first time for us to have some flavored Greek yogurt as a snack. I loved it! I tried out the Strawberry with granola and the kids both had the Vanilla with dark chocolate chips. They were both delicious and the kids thought they were getting a dessert.
I really liked the mix-ins. I thought the granola really added something to the strawberry yogurt. I also liked that there was enough granola so you got some in every single bite.

Let me tell you why I love Yopa! Greek yogurt.

• It has twice the protein of regular yogurt
• Good source of calcium
• 0g of cholesterol and trans fat
• Made with 5 cultures and 3 probiotics
• No preservatives or artificial colors (and only one product has artificial flavor – vanillin)
• Each serving is just a little over 100 calories, including the mix-in

I am doing my best to lead a more active lifestyle. Thankfully my efforts also mean that my children are being a lot more active. I really like that I have a healthy snack to give them that they are actually excited about. I  had a yogurt for breakfast this morning even. I’m excited about adding Yopa! in as a part of my balanced diet.

Here’s one happy Yopa! yogurt customer.
