Chobani Champions: Greek Yogurt for Children

February 19, 2010

My kids are obsessed with yogurt – especially my son.  If we let him, he’d eat three or more every morning for breakfast.  We are pretty picky with which yogurt we purchase, because I know not everything labeled as yogurt is completely healthy, so we’ve pretty much stuck with organic kids’ yogurts for the kids.  [...]

Everyone who knows me knows that I absolutely cannot bake.  I mean, honestly, I could (and have) mess up cookies in a roll.  So, I almost always stick to boxes of baking mix, which do make things a little easier. I just had the chance to try a few boxes of the newest Duncan Hines [...]
