This mango frozen yogurt can be made in just 5 minutes. The pistachio crumble gives this sweet, creamy treat a delicious crunchy topping.
Summer is all about the ice cream for me. We live 2 minutes away from a Rita’s (not my favorite icy treat, but hand me a small gelati and I won’t complain), about 7 minutes from the local hole in the wall ice cream joint (think everything from soft serve to sundaes to floats) and about 12 minutes from a self-serve fro-yo (and all its topping possibilities!) place.
Know what all that means?
3 different, all too close by places to pack on an extra 10 pounds this summer. And when you go 2-3 times a week, yes, that can happen pretty easily.
This is my last post with Udi’s and interestingly enough, it’s supposed to be about my gluten free journey. As we’ve gone over a few times, since I’m not gluten free, my journey is really one about overall health in which a gluten free diet sometimes fits into.
Health this summer is going to mean finding a balance between the ice cream shop treats (because let’s be real, there’s nothing better than a cherry dipped vanilla cone in all it’s high fructose corn syrup glory) and homemade (healthier) alternatives.
Like this mango frozen yogurt you can make in 5 minutes. No ice cream maker and no freezing required. Just some frozen fruit, yogurt and a good food processor. It’s the perfect answer when you don’t want to be bothered with churning and freezing.
Prefer a smoothie version? Try this mango pineapple smoothie which is equally as simple and incredibly sweet and refreshing with all the tropical vibes of a good beach drink.
Although, if you have time for that, give this strawberry kefir ice cream a try because it tastes very similar to frozen yogurt but with an extra level of creaminess.

I’m an ice cream consumer and this blows my mind on what I thought about healthy food. I could eat this everyday,and so easy to make. I added a few strawberries on top too.
This looks easy and delicious! I swear, the simplest recipes are always the best.
I’m alllll for this frozen yogurt – we’ve been freebasing fro-yo pops lately and they are getting out of control spendy. Who knew 80 calories a pop could cost $5 for a 4 pack! I’ll take this any day
I love that you used mango in your recipe! This looks so delicious and is perfect for the summer! I like how it’s so quick to make!
Five minutes to that deliciousness?! Wow!
As soon as I finish a very similar strawberry version of this recipe that’s in the freezer now, I’m moving on to mango. So yum!! 4 for $5 at the store right now, too :)
Looks divine! I need me some of that Froyo!
mango is my favorite fruit, next to bananas. i can’t do cow milk well, so maybe goat milk yogurt will work as a sub? definitely need to try this out, it looks so good!
