It seems there’s a new yogurt shop everywhere you look. Part of yogurt’s popularity isn’t just taste, but also health benefits. Yogurt contains probiotics, which are live microorganisms called “friendly bacteria” that may help with digestive health.[1] We make it easy to integrate yogurt into your healthy lifestyle.

#1 Liven up your breakfast.

Smoothies are a great way to get that nutrition and energy boost you need in the morning. For a creamy mouth-feel to all your morning smoothies, add yogurt. Use your Black & Decker Cyclone® 10-Speed Blender to prepare a tropical island smoothie, or a smoothie we call “breakfast in a glass.” Or, just add ¼ to ½ a cup of plain yogurt after adding milk to any smoothie of your preference.

#2 Go exotic.

Impress your family and friends with a delicious mango lassi, a popular Indian and Pakistani drink made from yogurt, water and mango. If you’ve been to an Indian restaurant, you’ve seen lassi on the menu. But you don’t have to go to a restaurant to make one. Simply add 1 cup of plain yogurt, ½ cup of water and 1 cup chopped fresh mango, in order, to your Black & Decker Cyclone® and blend for 1 minute.

#3 Make healthy creamy soups.

Use yogurt instead of tomato juice in your next gazpacho. A nutritional cold raw vegetable soup, gazpacho is deliciously refreshing in hot weather months. Prepare a yogurt-based one with your Black & Decker PowerPro® Wide-Mouth Food Processor. You’ll appreciate the creamy consistency you’ll get from the yogurt.

Steaming, a cooking method that uses vapors from boiling water or broth to cook food can be utilized every day in the kitchen. The Black and Decker 7-Quart Food Steamer is designed for versatility and every day use. Whether you’re cooking eggs for salad or rice for dinner, your steamer can tackle almost anything.

Steaming gives food a moist texture as a result of the direct contact the food has with the steam, but not the associated liquids. It keeps veggies crisp and nutrient-packed, too.

The Steamer includes 4-quart and 3-quart steaming baskets, built-in egg holders and a 5-cup rice bowl. Cooking an entire family-sized meal is possible because different courses or dishes can be stacked on top of one another.

Using your steamer is easy. Simply place the food in the baskets, fill the external reservoir with water or broth and set the timer (up to 75 minutes). A signal will beep once food is ready.

Oil is not necessary for steaming. This does not, however, mean boring food. You can cook meals like teriyaki salmon, chili shrimp and steamed pork dumplings. Any grease will fall into the drip tray for easy cleanup. For added taste, use the built-in Flavor Scenter® screen that infuses fish and meats with selected herbs and spices.

This steamer is available now at major retailers nationwide and online.
