LEMON YOGURT CHEESE OVER SUMMER FRUIT



Lemon Yogurt Cheese over Summer Fruit image

From a grocery store flier for National Dairy Month. Cook time is the refrigeration time. When I made mine, I made the mistake of using a blended yogurt and very little separated out. It still tasted good, but next time I'll make sure I pick a brand that separates better.
