Cinch Yogurt Recipes

Tired of Cinch Shakes? If you’ve been on the Cinch plan a while you may need a little variety in your 2 Cinch meals a day. I’m a yogurt lover, but my 1 cup of yogurt everyday didn’t quite fit into my personal Cinch plan, and the 4 oz variety, was too little for me. These variations are good anytime!  They satisfy my yogurt craving, are very filling and really change up my plan.  I used organic fat free plain yogurt.  It was the only fat free yogurt I found that had no aspartame of Splenda ™. These yogurt meals are filling and easy to whip up.  I used ¾ cup instead of 1 cup to keep the calorie count down.  1 cup fat free yogurt is 110 calories vs 90 calories for light soy milk or 100 calories for non-fat milk.  I’m sure that you could substitute soy yogurt, sheeps milk yogurt or coconut yogurt. Just watch for the fat/calorie content.

If you choose to use vanilla yogurt, the calorie count will increase.

You don’t need any extra sweetener because the Cinch TM shake mix is naturally sweet.  If you must add sweetener, add some stevia or a little xylitol.  I add some water to thin it or it will be too thick.

These are really yummy and make me feel full.  Not on Cinch yet?  See me or visit my Cinch Plan site.


Pumpkin Pie yogurt – my new favorite

¾ cup fat free plain yogurt (80 calories)
¼ cup canned pumpkin (22 calories) counts as ½ vegetable
2 scoops Cinch ™ vanilla shake mix
½ tsp cinnamon or to taste
dash ginger
2 drops vanilla extract
2T water – to thin the yogurt/Cinch ™ mix

This is a really good substitute for pumpkin pie!

Pina Colada yogurt

¾ cup fat free yogurt – (80) calories
2 scoops Cinch TM vanilla shake
2-3T crushed pineapple.  Fresh is better, canned works just fine Count it as part of your fruit serving
2 drops drops rum flavoring

Mocha Expresso Yogurt

¾ cup fat free plain yogurt (80 Calories)
2 scoops Caffe Latte Cinch ™ Shake mix
2 tsp cocoa baking powder (not chocolate milk mix)
Couple drops vanilla extract

Change it up – switch to 2 scoops chocolate Cinch ™
shake mix
1 tsp coffee granules

Can use coffee to thin the yogurt/Cinch mixture

Berry Good Yogurt

¾ cup fat free plain yogurt
2 scoops Cinch ™ strawberry shake mix
couple of drops vanilla or orange or almond extract
¼ cup fresh or frozen blueberries
¼ cup fresh or frozen strawberries

The fruit in this will count as 1 fruit serving on your Cinch ™ plan.

Peanut Butter Cookie Yogurt – may need a blender for this one!

¾ cup fat free plain or vanilla yogurt
2 scoops Cinch ™ vanilla shake mix
2T natural peanut butter creamy or crunchy style – this counts as 2 fat servings
2 drops vanilla extract

Mix it up well!

Change it up! Almost like Reese’s ™ yogurt

¾  cup Fat-free plain yogurt
2 scoops Cinch™ chocolate shake mix
1 tsp cocoa baking powder
2 drops vanilla extract

Coffee Addict – this should quench the craving of the most ardent coffee lover

¾ cup fat-free plain yogurt
2 scoops Cinch™ Caffe Latte shake mix
2 drops vanilla
1 tsp instant coffee granules
dash cinnamon

Thin this  w/coffee.  You may want to add some stevia or xylitol
