Finally sunny weather that’s here to stay. Admittedly I am the happiest during the summer months when temperatures rise so high that you can see a #heatwave trend all over the media. There’s so much to love for me about this season. The clear blue sky, the flowers and spending as much time as I can in the garden. Now since I need to optimise my time during the summer, I fall back on quick on the go frozen desserts just to get back out there and enjoy these rare moments of sunshine here in the UK. This ‘Froyo’ mango dessert is so quick and oh so delicious!
When it’s as warm as it was today, I get full on lazy. You will find me outside, reading in the shade or bathing in the sunshine. Since I’m a child of summer, I can not get enough of it. The only thing that can at least temporarily drag me back inside the house is the urge for a cold snack. Said snack better be made quickly because I have sun rays to catch and piling up the vitamin D is serious business.
Vitamin D, also known as the “sunlight vitamin” is conveniently produced by our body while we are exposed to daylight. It’s important for calcium absorption and therefore relevant for bone growth. One portion of this lovely frozen yoghurt covers about 15% of an adult’s daily calcium needs. I would be a shame to let that go to waste by not making sure I have enough vitamin D. Let me cut this short so that I can head back outside again. This frozen mango yoghurt soft serve is healthy; it’s tasty, contains no added sugars and is very easy to make. What’s not to like? Happy days! Enjoy your summer guys.
- 500g (1lb) cleaned and frozen mango
- 150g (2/3 cup) vegan yoghurt
- 1 tsp lime juice
- Add all ingredients to a food processor or blender and process until smooth.
- Scoop into bowls, serve it with some freshly grated lime zest and mint if you have.
- Enjoy!
Oh, wow, this looks really easy! (not to mention DELICIOUS!) I bet it would also work with non-vegan yogurt, which is what we usually have around the house. Will definitely have to try this sometime – have saved to my Healthy Eating Pinterest board 🙂
It does! It works with any yoghurt. Made it once with coconut cream even. – Love, G. =D
What a yummy recipe perfect for hot summer weather! I love that the ingredients are so minimal and the recipe so easy to follow!
This looks delicious. My daughter is vegan and we’re always looking for good recipes to try. We also love Mango and this is perfect for summer. We’ll definitely be trying this out very soon. Perfect timing!
How lovely of you to support your daughter on her vegan journey. Not many parents are this understanding. – Much love, G.
I love a nice cold yummy treat in the summer! Thank you for sharing such a great recipe. I can’t wait to try it!
Yum! This looks and sounds delicious! I’ve added it to my Tailwind queue so I can make it sometime soon.
Thank you for the share, it’s much appreciated. – Love, G.
That mango yogurt looks absolutely delicious and mouth-watering! Living in Vietnam and having to cope with horrible hot weather all year round makes me realize the splendid meaning of a cold, fresh yogurt, especially in the summer and when I’m on a budget. And I have not mentioned the greatest part yet: that it is Vegan and is so easy to make, even an amateur like me can master this recipe. I’ll be sure to make this wonderful dessert for my family next Sunday when my father comes home from work!
Vietnam! How I envy you for all the direct access to all these fruits. I bet they taste so much better over there and how nice of you to treat your father with a tasty dessert. I am total daddy’s girl myself and love to cook for him. – Much love from England, G.
It;s really hot here today and I wish I had my blender with me so I could make this and devour it!!! Have to wait for another time ugh
Mmmmm this does look perfect for summer! And I love that it’s only 3 ingredientes! It makes it super simple to make.
It is always great to be outside during the summer months with the kids as long as it is not to hot outside. Making this frozen soft serve mango yogurt makes for a great healthy snack and something to cool everyone off too. This is a recipe I am going to have to make for the kids for sure. Thanks for sharing the recipe.
This is my kind of dessert; fresh, healthy, and easy to make. I can almost taste the deliciousness.
We love froyos and mango! This is a great recipe to enjoy at home..
