Frozen Yogurt

I've been making my own yogurt continually since I've come home from Nebraska.  Cindy (my daughter) & I had a wonderful opportunity to visit a friend of hers that is from India. Her name is Gayathri and she gave us a yogurt culture that has been in her family for 100 years.  She never buys yogurt from the store.  She just continues to use a little yogurt from her family recipe and makes a new batch.  She is lucky enough to be able to buy fresh milk from a dairy.  I don't have that luxury here in Lake Havasu City.  I do buy my milk from the store.  I usually only make 1/2 gallon at a time.  I take some and make yogurt cheese and then store the rest for use.  Lately I've been taking a cup of frozen peaches and adding them to a cup of yogurt in a blender.  I first put in the yogurt then turn on the blender and slowly 1 by 1 add the peach slices until it is the consistency I want for my frozen yogurt.  Then I add a couple of packets of Truvia.  Naturally you can use any sweetener you prefer.

Peach Frozen Yogurt
1 cup yogurt
1 cup frozen peaches
2 packets sweetener
Add yogurt to a blender then slowly add the peaches one at a time to the blender while on medium speed.  When all the peaches are added you can add the sweetener and continue to blend until the desired consistency is achieved.  Enjoy your dessert.

I plan to try this is mixed berries and blueberries next.
