Greek Yogurt Thoughts???

home made, regular or greek. add some sweetness, a little fruit. BAM! cup for lunch, cup for dinner. fraction of the cost. must make more tonight.

Full strength Cabot for me. A half cup of it is plenty. Rich, creamy, decadent. Plain, with frozen fruit, with cucumber and dill, with oil cured olives ... yum. We use it as a substitute for sour cream, both in cooking and on a baked potato, in borscht, in a stroganoff or a paprikash ...

155 cal. in 1/2 a cup. Just a few extras among the ingredients: Pasteurized milk, cream, whey protein concentrate, milk protein concentrate, live active yogurt cultures (Acidophilus, Bifidus, L. bulgaricus and S. thermophilus), Vitamins A,C,D,E.

Greek Gods has 6 g protein and 10 oz carbs per 6 oz: http://www.greekgodsyogurt.com/html/ynonfat.php

Chobani has 18 g protein and 7 g carbs per 6 oz: http://chobani.com/products/non-fat-plain/

Fage is similar to Chobani: http://www.fageusa.com/products/fage-total-0-percent/


I actually like the texture of the full fat ones better, but can rarely find them in the stores round here, so I go with Chobani or Fage 0%. Add some stevia, blueberries and Kashi Go Lean crunch and that's my breakfast most days.

no particular brand is better that another. greek yogurt is a STYLE of yogurt not a brand. so eat which ever one taste good--and the cheap ones aren't too bad either. I get what is on sale that week

I buy the Dannon Oikos plain. I use it in place of sour cream. Also I add my own fruit or granola to it.

German Yogurt is the way to go. If you like sauerkraut/cabbage. YUM!
