Greek Yogurt

Options
I really want to like this stuff but I have tried it plain several times and just don't! I was wondering if you all have some creative ideas to mix it or some recipes that maybe could make me like it :)

    1 tsp honey and some walnuts - deeeeeeeeeeelicious! :D Or 1 tsp of your favourite jam or fruit compote - takes the sour edge off. Or mix it into some granola instead of milk.

    Frozen strawberries, in nooker to slightly thaw. Then puree in mini mixer, add to yogurt. I add one packet of Stevia to sweeten. I've used other frozen fruits, too :)

    Mini mixer a whole banana add to yogurt along with 2T creamy PB (I use soy for allergy reasons) SO GOOD! Perfect pre workout fuel!


    I also use greek yogurt instead of sour cream. Add to soups like broccoli and cheese, dollop on chili or taco salads, etc. Add to smoothies. Heck I've even baked with it and found no difference in taste lol

    I use it in fruit smoothies with Torani sugar free orange syrup. I also don't care for it by itself (even the flavored kinds with sugar). I find it too sour.

    When I first tried greek yogurt, I hated it. It was the yoplait brand and it was disgusting. Since then, I've tried chobani and I usually have one a day at least. My favorite flavors are black cherry, blueberry, strawberry banana, and pineapple. Yum!!!

    I too don't care for it plain. I add a small amount of agava nectar, fresh fruit, and either granola, almonds, or pecans to the top..It's almost sinful

    I've also just added a packet of splenda and fruit..

    HONEY! That's the ticket. Mix in liberally. I've got Foge 0% Greek Yogurt in the house right now and use it as a substitute for mayo with tuna fish.

    I agree on the Chobani flavored yogurt. It took me a little bit to get used to the consistency compared to regular yogurt. I like the Chobani brand because it has the fruit in it as well.

    I like it with a few chopped walnuts, pineapple, blueberries.:love: I get the plain non fat because it has less sugar.

    In hot weather I put the blueberries in frozen!~

    210 calorie heaven:

    Take 1 cup plain greek nonfat yogurt, dice up one apple and mix in along with 2 packets of Splenda, and a bit of cinnamon and vanilla extract. Stick in freezer for half an hour. Yum.

    I never liked it when I first tried it either. I have found Chobani to be the best tasting. I buy the vanilla and add my own fresh berries to it and sometimes granola. I just found Chobani at my local walmart this weekend. Some leave a funny after taste, Chobani is less strong.

    Try using plain in place of sour cream in Mexican flavored dishes like tacos.
