Greek Yogurt?

atynk

I can't stand cottage cheese, but here greek yogurt is high in protein and good for you.,..
Before I buy some, just wondering what it tastes like, or what you eat it with?

Thoughts?

I have just bought some the other day, and I'm not a big yogurt eater... but have been hearing how good this is for you, so I tried it and I liked it.... BUT... I bought the plain, and I ate half the cup and added around a tsp of Cinnamon, and I had strawberries and kiwi with it and it was oh so yummy. It kinda reminded me of the yogurt parfait at McDonald's. The first few bites took a minute to get used to the texture, but I added some more fruit and I loved it. I bought the vanilla too, but haven't eaten that one yet... it has more calories.

Greek Gods Honey flavor is super yummy with fruit!

I like it much better than regular yogurt. I've only had it with fruit flavors: blueberry and strawberry. My experience is; it is firmer than what I know as "regular" yogurt, similar to sour cream in a tub. The taste has a bit more tang but I like that because I think regular yogurt tastes somewhat bitter. If you like regular yogurt, chances are you will like greek yogurt.

I LOVE IT. I get the Fage 2% that comes with fruit. It's SOOOO good!!

I love mixing Total Greek Yogurt [plan] with lentils or quinoa. It's my substitute to creme fraiche or sour cream. Yum!

Chobani is my favorite. Vanilla, honey, strawberry, blueberry, peach...Sometimes I add a tablespoon of mini chocolate chips and sometimes I add frozen fruit and blend it into a smoothie. Others on here say its a good sour cream substitute on baked potatoes etc.

Is it high in fat? is there a light version?

Skinnytime

Fage or Oikos (Stonyfield's organic version) are my faves. Fat free and plain - if I want sugar or fruit I add it. Just had some for a snack.

I love Fage 0% - its fat free, 90 calories for a single serving cup, and I think just as fresh and creamy as the 2% version. I mix it with just about anything, but my favorite is to mix in some honey and walnuts for a more wholesome snack or even breakfast. Its soooo tasty and reminds me of being in Greece!

You can def get a light or non-fat version. I love the plain and adding a little sweet myself because the flavored ones increase in sugar and calories. But even it plain is soo good. A little tart but I like that part. Normal yogurt is too sweet for (unless its frozen yougurt....hehe). I even buy the trader joes brand to save sum bucks.

I buy the dannon greek vanilla yogurt and I add a little fruit and just a dash of stevia for a little sweeter taste. It tastes great and has 12grams of protein!! an't beat that! It's worth a try!

If you have a trader joes their plain greek yogurt is delish, but quite tart. I suggest a sprinkle of splenda and some chopped bananas or other fruit it's super good.

LOVE Dannon Plain greek... i dont buy any sweetened/fruit ones. I hated yoplait and didnt like chobani (with fruit).... i cant afford the other kinds!! I have heard plain greek referred to as tasing like sour cream- kind of has the tart flavor of plain yogurt but with a very creamy smooth and thicker texture... yum.

eta- I love to eat it with fresh strawberries !! I eat at least one per day/ with or without fruit... and its only 80 calories for the one i like.

Chobani makes a really good 0% fat vanilla, strawberry, blueberry and honey flavored yogurt. (I haven't tried the other flavors) Oikos has a really good honey flavor, too, that I sometimes buy if I can't find the Chobani honey. (Chobani is a little less expensive than the Oikos)

Fage 0% is my favorite.

I know this probably defeats the point, but my officemates threw a birthday bash for one of the other girls a couple weeks back, and had an ice cream sundae bar with nuts, fruits and other goodies. I decided that instead of eating ice cream, I'd just turn my greek yogurt into a "sundae", so I tossed some chopped walnuts and a few semi-sweet chocolate chips in there. Oh wow, so delicious!

Normally I eat it plain or mixed with a little granola or berries, but the dessert version was a fun variation.

found some yoplait brand strawberry flavor today- i had about 2 bites before my son stole it from me! it was ok- little grittier than yogurt but not in a bad way- maybe its just thicker but seemed grittier to me- i dunno- it was different! i didn't like the price so i won't go out of my way to buy anymore- $1 each!!!!! they had a 4 or 6 pack not sure which- but i didn't check the price.

We almost always have either Greek yogurt, or sometimes an organic, plain, fat-free regular yogurt. There is a difference in taste and the Greek yogurt is a little thicker, but we use them both interchangeable. We use a LOT of yogurt, we eat it plain, we add fruit, granola, make smoothies, I use it in recipes that call for sour cream, or even heavy cream, which I never seem to have on hand. I seem to use yogurt all the time. Also, our daughters 3 years old and 20 months old LOVE any kind of yogurt.
