    That's part of my grocery list, lol. You can probably get some ideas from that. I have a lot more things on there, but I accidentally copied only half of my list.

    Plain greek Yogurt, I like Oiko!!. I use plain greek yogurt instead of sour cream. I also make a lot of dips/sauces with it like. For tacos, I mix it with lime juice and garlic powder. Tzaziki sauce is easy, greek yogurt, diced cucumber, salt, garlic and lemon and is great on chicken. I mix it with salsa for some extra protein. On top of veggies I use it mixed with lemon juice and just a dab of all natural mayo and a sprinkle of parmesan cheese. Seriously, the options with plain yogurt are awesome and endless!
