Tatum’s Recipe Hacks:
✨ To add even more nutrition and flavor to your Frozen Yogurt Bark, try topping it with chopped nuts, chia seeds, hemp hearts, unsweetened coconut flakes, or a sprinkle of granola before freezing. These additions can provide extra fiber, healthy fats, protein, and crunch.
🫐 Blueberries get their vibrant blue color from compounds called anthocyanins, a type of antioxidant that may help support heart health, brain function, and healthy aging. 🍓💙
