Extra Monday Post

As I sit and eat my homemade yogurt with frozen blueberries this morning, I thought I should again share the link to make your own. For two years, I've used a yogurt maker like the one pictured here. Basically all a yogurt maker does is keep the mixture at a steady temperature for the 4-8 hours necessary to make yogurt. It works great, but the little jars are kind of a pain to me to empty, clean, etc.

After I posted these homemade yogurt instructions the other day, I tried that method myself. Much easier and it makes one large batch (half gallon to be exact). Making your own yogurt saves money, can be healthier because you control the sweetener, and saves numerous plastic containers. Even though I recycle them, we can go through a lot!

The first few times may seem tedious because you're checking temperatures and making sure everything is just right, but I promise it gets easier. Try it and let me know!
