Tonal coach Gabby Sansosti believes eating healthy means enjoying everything in moderation—and that includes dessert.
“We all crave sweets,” she says. “How do we go about fulfilling those desires in a way that’s healthy for us?” The answer: Take your favorite treats and refresh them with a nutritious spin.
Coach Gabby shared this frozen yogurt recipe because you can make it at home in a blender with just a few ingredients. “It’s something you can have at the end of the day or throughout the day,” she says. “It’s an option that tastes good, and fulfills cravings in a way that’s healthy.”

While mango, lime, and honey add sweetness and refreshing flavor, using thick Greek yogurt supports your gut health and gives this dessert ( or snack ) a creamy, rich satiating consistency with a boost of protein. Research suggests that including this food more regularly in your diet could even help increase muscle gains. One study looking at the consumption of Greek yogurt during a 12-week exercise program in lean males found it promoted improvements in strength, muscle thickness, and body composition, and is a viable recovery food option to consider post-exercise.
Utilizing Greek yogurt in a frozen treat is a great example of how healthy protein-rich ingredients can also be more than just fuel, explains John Christie, registered dietitian and director of Tonal’s Curriculum Intelligence. “Think of this recipe as the nutritional equivalent of a badge on Tonal and something that adds to all the great progress you’re making,” he says.
