skyr.is icelandic yogurt

Another tasty and healthy way to sneak proteins and calcium into the twins. They have already had skyr before so this was not a big deal for them. I like this soft cheese because it does not have the chalky texture that some of the greek yogurts have.

Icelandic yogurt aka skyr, soft cheese

With 16 gm of protein per 6oz serving this icelandic yogurt from Siggi's caught my eye in the grocery store. I looked it up and found out from wikipedia that it is probably Norwegian in origin and is technically a soft cheese. I give it to the twins on days they vehemently reject milk. For now they lap it up but in the future if they make a fuss all I have to tell them is that this is Viking food!

I tried the orange & ginger flavor and found it to be a bit 'artificial' tasting. Pomegranate & passion fruit is next.
