Feeding my twin toddlers is a challenge. I worry about the quality, quantity and everything in between. Trying not to get into a rut and introducing variety is an everyday effort.

Frozen yogurt, Greek style from Cyclops
After a couple of my friends teased me about how deprived my kids are since the only dessert they know (and ever get) is flavored yogurt, I decided to ease them into frozen treats with this mango flavored frozen yogurt, Greek style, from Cyclops.
The twins did not like it! To me it tasted a bit greasy and too sweet. So there it is - they are so notdeprived.
I haven't tried this, but Amanda at The Frickin Chicken blog made banana "ice cream" for her girls. She said she froze some diced bananas, and then pureed them in the food processor. Her girls thought they were getting ice cream.
I feed our girls sweets very rarely, only when my hubby and I are having something and they get a few bites. I think they're too young to worry about this just yet, but I want to be careful not to get them in the mindset of expecting sweets on any kind of regular basis. On the other hand, I don't want them to feel "deprived" either. :)
I read that post - actually I read about the one-ingredient ice cream a couple of years back too. Iam just waiting for the bananas to ripen just right before trying it.
