Yogurt Cheese

Remember that recipe I posted a week or two ago called "Yogurt Cheese?" Well, I tried it and I liked it!! It was soooooo very easy and a real nice change from "regular" yogurt. If you need the recipe, click over on the recipes tab at the top of my blog and you will come across it. All I did was.....

1. Bought a big container of FF plain yogurt. (I have yet to make my own yogurt).
2. Lined a strainer with coffee filters.
3.  Placed the lined strainer over a big bowl.
4. Poured the full container of yogurt into the lined strainer.
5. Placed it in the fridge overnight.

And, this is what it looked like when it was done.
Look at how thick and creamy it is.

This what the yogurt "water" looks like when you are done. This is the "stuff" that drained out of the yogurt.


Okay, so, now all I have to do is add a little bit of vanilla extract and some Splenda and I'm good to go. It tastes very very good. And, I feel it is VERY frugal too. So, I just have a half-a-cup of this (1 point worth) with some fresh fruit and yum!

Thanks!
