Frozen Yogurt Dots

These round colorful snacks from Small Fry are so yummy and fun, what baby wouldn’t want to eat them up? Pour full-fat Greek yogurt into three bowls and mix with all-nautral food coloring. Fill three sandwich bags with the dyed yogurt. Snip the corner of each bag and squeeze yogurt gently onto a sheet pan. Freeze for one hour. Don't want to use food coloring? You could use different flavors of Greek yogurt instead. If your baby is over 12 months, mix the yogurt with honey for some extra sweetness.
