Peaches and Cream Frozen Yogurt

The few times I have made this differ as far as the peaches I used. For example, the first time when I wrote the recipe, the peaches were huge! Very very large! I would say about 2 to 3 regular sized peaches would yield the same amount of fruit as the large peaches I used. Therefore, the next time I made it, I used 5-6 regular sized peaches. However, since the peaches aren't detrimental, calorie wise, to this recipe, you can use what you like. I have even made this recipe with other fruit, such as cherries, mangos, pineapple, or strawberries. When substituting fruit, simply chop the fruit as you would like to see it within the frozen yogurt, and follow the procedures indicated in the recipe. The lime juice and sugar will add flavor and punch and draw out the juice for exceptional flavor to the yogurt. Also, draining the yogurt allows for the extra juice drawn out of the fruit by the sugar and lime juice. Enjoy and feel free to let me know how you have changed this recipe to make it better or different.
