Diary of a Yogurt Lover

As many of you know, I've commited myself to a healthier and happier 2013, which includes eating healthier.  I have to admit, I am a Greek Yogurt Lover. If I could have it my way, I'd have Greek Yogurt as part of every meal as well as snacks. :))  I like having eating Greek yogurt out of the container, in a bowl with Kroger low fat granola or oats, or as an ingredient in a frosty cold smoothie.

I recently received an invitation to join another Bzz Campaign; Kroger Good for You.  The campaign is involves Kroger brand yogurts, Greek yogurt, CARBMaster yogurt for those watching their carb intake and CARBmaster milk drink.

For participating in the campaign I received a 10$ Frys food gift card to purchase Kroger's yogurt and the  CARBmaster milk drink;  and by 3 get one free coupons for Kroger Greek Yogurt and CARBMaster Yogurt to share.

Armed with my gift card, I headed to Frys to see what was available. I was pleased to find a variety of different flavors. Some of the usual like Vanilla, Blueberry and Strawberry were there, then I saw, Pomegranate, which really peeked my interest. They also had Greek Lite yogurt with flavors like Pineapple Mago,  Blackberry Yummyberry and lemon creme. 

In the Carbmaster section, I found exotic some flavors like Black Forest Cake, Cinnamon Roll, Carrot cake Key Lime and Strawberry Pomegranate in addition to the standards like Strawberry,  Blueberry and vanilla. 

I found the Carbmaster Milk drink around the "soy" milk options. Regular and Vanilla flavors. I generally use a vanilla or chocolate soy milk for the smoothies, but I was willing to give Kroger's Carbmaster reduced sugar milk a try.

The carbmaster milk was great addition to making smoothies. I love using Yogurt, fresh fruit and a skim or health milk alternative.

If you like Yogurt, and like traditional flavors as well as specialty flavors I highly recommend Kroger's brand yogurts. I'll admit, I am a Greek Yogurt fanatic. I'm spoiled with it's thickness and anything other than Greek Yogurt just won't do. Once I went Greek, I couldn't go back...... Wonder of Greek Yogurt will ever come out in flavors like Black forest cake and carrot cake.......
