And then today I had a rare occurrence...two babies napping at the same time. I opened a thing of greek yogurt and almost sat down (which pretty much never happens), and then I had this great idea. Teething kids love cold things in their mouths. Teething kids don't eat. Freeze the yogurt! YUM!
So here's how it went down. I put wax paper over a big plate and emptied one thing of black cherry (or whatever flavor you love) yogurt into a sandwich sized ziplock.
Then I snipped just a tiny tip off the bag...
And piped the yogurt into small circles (about the size of a finger tip or so) starting in the middle and working out...
Popped them in the freezer for a couple of hours, peeled them off the wax paper, and they are ready to go. As soon as the little ones woke they were fussing, so I gave them these and they loved them. (I'm not going to lie, I had my fair share as well because they are delicious and nearly guilt free!!)
The only negative thing is that they melt pretty fast. I gave them to these guys on the plate that had been in the freezer and that kept them from melting a bit. On the plus side, they're cold and hopefully provided some relief from those darn teeth, they're healthy, taste awesome and are super easy to make.
