    Dried cranberries, walnuts, and, if needed, a bit of agave sweetener.

    I add some frozen berries (strawberries or blueberries), just a drizzle of pure honey and a tsp sliced almonds for crunch. Alway use Fage full fat as it tastes the best. I just limit myself to half a container and eat rest next day.

    but would like some more suggestions to add variety and keep things interesting.

    Replacing it with ice cream works for me.

    Which reminds me: I like it mixed with chocolate PB2 and frozen sweet cherries (still frozen, not thawed).

    I find the nonfat to be far too tangy, makes me almost gag. But I love the full fat, with almonds and fruit or honey mixed in. I also like Skyr, which is high protein as well. IF the tanginess bothers you, try full fat and experiment with different brands. My husband loves Fage, and abhors Chobani with the passion of a thousand burning suns.

    A spoonful of any healthy cereal helps. This also makes the texture more palatable.

    My favorite is Dannon Light And fit Vanilla Greek yogurt with 2x the protein. I never eat it on its own. I do 6 oz yogurt and I add a serving of Polanders fruit jelly/jam (blackberry, strawberry, or peach), 10 g sliced almonds, 5-10g of bark thins dark chocolate, and 5-10g whipped cream. This is one of my favorite snacks/evening dessert that I look forward too.

    I used to HATE plain Greek yogurt, but I started eating Fage, added frozen fruit and really love it now. It took me a few weeks to get used to it, but it has lots of protein, not a lot of fat/sugar. Just be careful and look at the ingredients/nutrition. A lot of them have lots of sugar and not much protein
