Of course I used to only like Alpen due to its high sugar content!! Prefer my porridge these days.http://www.timeshealth.co.uk/1_1017_0.htmlSun, 08 Jun 2008 18:38:12 +0000http://www.timeshealth.co.uk/1_1017_0.htmlAndrew, we had low fat Greek yoghurt for tea and I put a teaspoon of runny (Welsh) honey on the top - the kids loved it!! Thanks for the idea. I opted out on the honey for diet reasons (weigh in tomorrow) and instead had some blueberries and a banana which was delicious.http://www.timeshealth.co.uk/1_1017_0.htmlSun, 08 Jun 2008 18:36:58 +0000http://www.timeshealth.co.uk/1_1017_0.htmlYou might even find you can get them to eat plain natural yougurt in this way. I didn't think I'd like the museli but it really ges well with the yogurt and of course there's currants in that. They can only say they don;t like it !!http://www.timeshealth.co.uk/1_1017_0.htmlSun, 08 Jun 2008 15:45:06 +0000http://www.timeshealth.co.uk/1_1017_0.htmlThat sounds really nice Andrew. They probably won't like the museli but maybe weetabix or currants will do the trick. Me, I quite fancy the idea of honey, cinnamon, nutmeg, ground coriander, currants, ginger and a sprinkling of the Tesco omega seed mix. Jeannie recommended the seeds on the Ab Fab forum....http://www.timeshealth.co.uk/1_1017_0.htmlSat, 07 Jun 2008 21:27:55 +0000http://www.timeshealth.co.uk/1_1017_0.htmlSprinkle a bit of museil on to the pots and then drizzle a bit of honey into each, Delicious, they'll love it !!http://www.timeshealth.co.uk/1_1017_0.htmlSat, 07 Jun 2008 21:22:32 +0000http://www.timeshealth.co.uk/1_1017_0.htmlQuoting: Relapsedstretch those kids' yogurts by using just one and mixing it with a good natural yogurt like Yeo Valley and then filling into two small plastic containers. Barbara, that is such a brilliant idea - I hadn't thought of doing that! We've got some small containers in the cupboard so can do it.

Hi Jacki In addition to Helen's tip on a yogurt maker, although it would mean additional washing up, you could stretch those kids' yogurts by using just one and mixing it with a good natural yogurt like Yeo Valley and then filling into two small plastic containers.
