Chunky but Chubless Fro-Yo

Apple Cake

This delectable Apple Cake has a slightly crunchy crust and a soft moist center that is loaded with chunks of sweet apple and pecans. It is perfectly spiced with cinnamon, ground cloves and nutmeg. It is lightly drizzled with an easy four ingredient caramel sauce. I make this cake several times each fall for bake sales, potlucks and family and friend get-togethers.

Easy Ratatouille

This easy ratatouille recipe is a classic summer French stew filled with vibrant, colourful and nutritious vegetables: tomatoes, zucchini and eggplant. It is a low-carb, gluten-free and vegan dish that can be made in one pan and served atop greens or grains, as a side to a main entrée, or all on its own.

First off, this tastes amazing! I love chocolate, peanut butter, and banana (I left out the pretzels) and the tang from the Greek yogurt is awesome! However, I had a little trouble with the process. The first part went fine and I was able to cut the initial frozen yogurt into big chunks. However, neither my food processor nor my blender made much of a dent in breaking up the chunks, even after I dug them out and cut them into smaller pieces. (Not enough liquid, I suspect.) So as I was standing in a huge mess in the kitchen (I did 5x the recipe because I had to use up two tubs of Greek yogurt) trying not to panic, my boyfriend suggested using my stand mixer. This worked much better for breaking up the chunks. The consistency never reached “creamy”, but it was pretty uniformly mixed and there were no chunks. He briefly mixed in the PB and chocolate chips and we put the whole lot in a huge tub in the freezer. My after-dinner treat was heavenly! This morning I checked on it, and it’s frozen in a solid mass, and there is no way to scoop any out. So I guess I’ll let it sit out to soften for a while each night before I scoop out my 1/2 c. portion. I’m not sure if this is just inherent to the recipe or I did something incorrectly. Here’s hoping my partial thaw plan works!
