Cinnamon Honey Yogurt

Make an individualized yogurt flavor suited to your exact flavor and sweetness preferences. Feel free to play with the recipe and use whatever ingredients you have on hand: honey, maple syrup, agave nectar, etc.

Ingredients:
4 cups (2 lbs) plain nonfat yogurt
2-3 tablespoons honey (or more if you so desire)
1 teaspoon cinnamon

Directions:
1. Mix the honey and cinnamon into the yogurt. I do this directly in the original container, so no bowls are needed.
2. Taste your concoction and add more honey or cinnamon if needed. Enjoy!

Hints:
• Mix in some chopped nuts, granola, Cheerios, graham cracker crumbs, or whatever else you can think of, along with chopped fruits and berries for a comforting breakfast parfait.
• Another suggestion for sweetening plain yogurt is to add your favorite fruits preserves or jams. That way, you can control the sweetness and avoid yogurts full of refined sugars and corn syrup.
• For another twist, try adding a couple teaspoons of unsweetened cocoa powder instead of the cinnamon. Chocolate yogurt is one of my personal all-time comfort foods.
