What do you add to your greek yogurt?

MelAb8709

I like to buy the large plain Fage 2% for cost and I don't love the fruit jelly on the side. Problem is, I can't eat it by itself. I've added sunflower seed butter, honey, blueberries and Ekeziel cereal (not at the same time!) - just read someone's suggestion to mix in some protein powder and let it sit in the fridge to thicken. I'll definitely give that a go!

Any other brilliant greek yogurt combinations I should try?

Today I had pancakes that I stuffed with vanilla greek yogurt and strawberries.

I like any mixture of Kashi, granola, nuts, fruit, honey or maple syrup.

I know a lot of people use plain greek yogurt in savory dishes as a replacement for sour cream or to add some creaminess and protein.

My favorite recipe is half a cup of nonfat plain greek yogurt, one teaspoon of maple syrup, a couple sprinkles of cinnamon, and half an ounce of toasted walnuts. Yum!

starznholes

Honey, chia seeds, 1/2 sliced banana- all together with the yogurt. :smooched:

I eat the Chobani Pineapple and add 3/4 cup of Kashi Go Lean Crunch. Holds me over almost all morning!

I do 6-8oz of plain greek yogurt, and add around 40g of Sweet Home Farm granola, and craisins. Or hot cocoa & a scoop of french vanilla protein powder. Mostly use greek yogurt for smoothies, though.

VERY ripe peaches diced really small. Also peel the bitter skin from a plum and chop it small. ZOMG. Delish in yogurt. Also a bit of a drizzle of distilled orange blossom water and honey is delicious.

Fruit and some nuts and freeze for a treat in an hr

Ice Cream Sandwich flavored protein powder or Chocolate PB2....sometimes a little of both

We have pretty much replaced all our sour cream with plain greek yogurt. There's so much more tanginess and richness to it. Not to mention a ton more protein!

I add strawberries to my plain greek yogurt. Less calories and sugar. To add crunch I put in a teaspoon of flax seeds or almond slivers.

I did not know this even existed ... I better look it up right now.

You can make tzatziki sauce with it. Yum.

My favorite is chestnut cream, but it's a pain to find, and pretty much pure sugar. Otherwise, fruit and a bit of stevia (peaches, plums or strawberries typically), or PB2 with a bit of stevia.

I add granola...

If I buy plain greek yogurt, I add a little homemade jam to it, or even just some mashed fruit. I had some no sugar added orange marmalade one time and stirred that in--it was wonderful!

GGDaddy

Crunchy yuminess, and really good macros!

Awhile ago I noticed a friend mix plain yogurt with cottage cheese, then my aunt says she grew up eating it as well, just adding fruit. I thought it sounded weird, but I tried it with pineapple and I love it!

I prefer the vanilla flavored. I often eat with grapes added to it. Even better is green and purple grapes, mandarin slices and walnuts at the same time. Great for a snack or dessert.

I add chocolate protein powder and steel cut oats!! My favorite!!

TR0berts

Vanilla extract and sweetener. To taste, of course.

mjohemme

If it is banana or coconut greek yogurt, I add mini choc chips and/or sliced almonds (or walnuts). If it is any other flavor, I add granola.

My favorite way is a 1/2 scoop protein powder. I've also added a little sugar free/zero calorie coffee syrup, but this thins it a bit or a granola cereal that's got pumpkin/flax seeds in it (because it's sweet enough to add without additional sweetner).
