Blueberry frozen yoghurt. Yum yum. Super easy to m Blueberry frozen yoghurt. Yum yum.
Super easy to make:

2 cups frozen blueberries
⅓ cup Greek yogurt
2 tablespoons maple syrup
2 teaspoon lemon juice

Place all ingredients in a food processor or blender and process until smooth. Serve immediately.

Note: This works best with frozen berries (if you have fresh berries, freeze them first) for that frozen yoghurt effect.

Gotu kola - the 'brain herb'. It's great for the skin too. I love to make gotu kola and chamomile balm for small wounds.
