I love the Liberte brand coconut Greek yogurt but at 280 calories for 3/4 cup. I don't have it anymore.
I tried plain 120 calories per 3/4 cup, but I just couldn't do it. I've been eating honey Greek (140 cal per 3/4c) with granola on top. Love it!
So what's your fave ?

    I do the vanilla greek yogurt with granola. Usually I have some fruit on the side. Such a yummy breakfast!

    I like plain greek yogurt with 1 tsp pure maple syrup mixed in. Totally yummy AND the protein grams are still higher than the sugar grams.

    I eat chobani or fage non fat plain greek yogurt with stevia or fruit from the berry family.

    I also put in my favorite protein powder and a little cocoa powder.

    I use Kashi GoLean Crunch instead of granola - it's higher in protein, fiber, and (according to me) deliciousness than granola.

    I mix 4 oz of plain chobani greek yogurt with half a scoop of protein powder and add some cereal for crunchiness, or I would have 4 oz yogurt with some fruits and nuts and add a little bit of honey or agave and have it as a dessert .

    I like the plain non-fat with a little agave nectar, almonds and berries. I usually get the bigger tubs of stoneyfield organic oikos or fage but I'll buy chobani if its on sale for $1

    1/2 cup plain Chobani or Oikos greek yogurt with 1/2 cup of raspberries, blueberries or blackberries & 2 TBSP of fruit & nut or banana nut granola. Yum!

    I also use it in place of sour cream, used it in a spinach stuffed portabello mushroom & recently used it in place of mayo in an awesome chicken salad.

    LOVE THE STUFF! :)

    I love the Yoplait Key Lime, best.

    But I also love the Oikos Organic with Caramel at the bottom. It's totally indulgent!

    Chobani's been better than any other Greek brand I've tried. I just decided today, though, that I don't care for most of the fruit flavors.

    Sometimes I eat it with wheat/flax cereal instead of milk. I'm a huge fan of the crunch, but if anyone's got recommendations besides cereal for that, please share!

    I like plain greek yoghurt with 1 tsp raw honey and fruit (either thawed mixed frozen fruit) or fresh pineapple. I also add cinnamon and ginger with the pineapple.
    Sometimes I also use a blender and use a frozen banana and some raw honey.

    CHOBANI.

    I can't get enough of the stuff. I usually stick a handful of fiber-rich granola in the cup. <3

    I've learned to like it plain.

    I do Fage with a pint of blackberries.
    I also blend frozen mixed berries with the yogurt to make a smoothie.

    I tried to mix it with broccoli today...baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad idea.

    I like the Yo-Crunch... It has blueberries on the bottom and you add granola to it. It's around 120 calories. I actually wish it had less blueberries, more yogurt.

    Chobani or Fage, avoid the dannon / yoplait stuff they are nasty and add weird thickeners rather than just straining it.

    I use the 0% plain for "tadziki" dish out 4 oz (1 serving), add lots of dill weed (not dill seed), finely chopped cukes, salt and pepper. Eat with pita chips, or take 1/2 a serving of pita chips, crush up and top the yogurt. very "cheap" snack. -- consume immediately. it wont' keep, the cukes will give out water. if you need to transport it to work, keep the cukes separate until consumption.

    I too use it as a sour cream substitute. When using it for mayo, i do 1/2 yogurt and 1/2 reduced fat mayo.

    For something unusual.... dish some yogurt out, add in a TB or 2 of your favorite nut butter (I like roasted almond butter), and some jelly (low sugar if you like). Mix, and it's like a super creamy PB&J

    Edit: I'm totally NOT anti-additive, but it will be nasty if there are additives. The ingredients should be skim milk and bacteria. nothing else

    With a spoon. Although a straw could be fun.

    Chobani fan here. Raspberry with 1/2 scoop vanilla protein powder every morning.

    I like Fage (or any plain) mixed with fresh fruit (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, etc). I do add a wee bit of sweetner to it as I have a sweet tooth.
