Is it always this bad during the summer? Did I just block prior summers out of my head?

| I foresee spending my summer under a giant hat. Maybe I can take this running with me? |
- running at 5:30am (which I now love, used to hate)
- eating frozen treats!
One of my favorite frozen treats to cool me off has been the Yasso Greek Yogurt Bar.
You must try these out!!
Each bar has 6 grams of protein and only 70 calories.
All natural and fat free of course.
They come in 3 different flavors, including raspberry, strawberry, and blueberry.
I tried raspberry and it was delicious. NOT overly sweet, just the perfect balance of tangy yogurt and sweet fruit.
I found these on sale for $3.99 at my local grocery store (Kroger), but click HERE for a list of all their locations, including Costco-- I could buy these in bulk for sure.
Do you love greek yogurt?
I feel like a lot of people can either take it or leave it since it has a pretty distinct flavor... I LOVE greek yogurt, it's an amazing source of protein and I actually like how it tastes. If you don't love the taste, you can try a little drizzle of honey on top to sweeten it up.
Ooh those look perfect after some sweaty yasso 800's! :)
ReplyDeleteDefinitely will look for them next time I'm in a regular grocery store.
I don't remember summer being so bad, but I haven't always been a runner. I think being a runner makes us more aware of how hot it really is. yuck.
ReplyDeleteI do like frozen yogurt, but we don't have any froyo places around here (thank goodness).
I LOVE greek yogurt! I must look for those!
ReplyDeleteI also love cake batter, and on sites like Pinterest, cake batter themed treats keep popping up! My downfall. However, I've found that a lot of the Vanilla Greek Yogurts out there totally satisfy my cake batter craving!! ...I'm sure they have tons of sugar added, but it still has to be healthier than actually making and eating cake batter :)
I also use plain greek yogurt in place of sour cream or mayo in a lot of recipes, like egg salad, or various dips... mmm. Our guests seem to love it, too!
I just realized yesterday that the rest of the country is getting this crazy Texas heat, too! Ugh. I love Greek yogurt- and have wondered about those bars... thanks for the recommendation. Definitely want to check them out. And I'm so impressed with your 5:30am runs! I still hate them. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you reviewed these!! I saw them in Krog and I have been wanting to try them forever! I didn't know they were so low cal, def going to zip over and try them
ReplyDeleteI actually just tried one of these Yasso bars last week while traveling! Loved em. Yes - I eat froyo every day (seriously) so was psyched when I saw these in my hotel's mini-market!
ReplyDeleteYes, I love greek yogurt. And that hat! We stay cool by staying in our basement and almost turning into vampires.

ReplyDeleteGoing to Costco in the morning after my run, LOVE greek yogurt (buy 2 of the Kirkland greek yogurt double packs every week). I'm going to look for these bars!
ReplyDeleteI'm going to keep an eye out for these on my next Costco trip! I did think at first that Bart Yasso is now selling frozen pops, ha.
ReplyDeleteLove greek yogurt, need to check this out! greek yogurt and ice cream - hell yeah!!
ReplyDeleteEeee! I want these (we're currently at the pool and it's hot). I'll definitely need to check the grocery store for these tonight
ReplyDeletetell me how you went to loving running at 5:30 am...
ReplyDeleteOhhhhhh Yes I tried these last month and i love them. Super healthy too:)
ReplyDeleteThe heat wave finally hit Spokane. It has been HOT, but I am not complaining since we have had the crappiest, most long drawn out winter ever. I was actually able to get some what of a sun tan over the weekend. I do feel sorry for my two pups since we don't have AC. :-(
ReplyDeleteI am going to look for those Greek yogurt bars the next time I go grocery shopping. I love Greek yogurt- eat it everyday.
Greek yogurt is divine! I love the Stonyfield Frozen Greek Yogurt pints, Mmmm mm!
ReplyDeleteI've seen these in Costco and have though about buying them on more than one occasion. I'm thinking I need to just do it based on your review!
