    i put 1/2 a packet of stevia and any berries i may have at home or bananas and cinnamon, or instead of stevia i use agave nectar but not a lot because it is super sweet. or i use plain greek yogurt 2% in place of sour cream or mayonnaise in tuna or chicken salad sandwich.

    Fruit or berries (any & all kinds - my favorite are frozen cherries w/mashed banana)
    Chia seeds
    rolled oats or steel cut oats

    Mix together - put in fridge overnight - eat. YUMMERS!

    When I eat plain Greek yogurt, I like to add liquid Stevia drops, which is a natural sweetener. Also, you might try organic raw honey (once you've had that, you can never go back to regular honey) or agave nectar.

    Well I use dairy-free "Greek style" yoghurt, but I love it over fresh fruit especially chopped grapes. Yum!

    My mum puts Greek yoghurt over frozen berries, which is fantastic too. It part freezes the yoghurt and makes it really decadent.

    One of my favourite breakfasts is raspberries, covered in plain low fat greek yogurt with a crumbled up weetabix on top, and honey drizzled over. Yum!

    My spoon.

    I like the zip. What's wrong with just plain? Lots of zip.

    Sometimes it's nice with some rolled oats n fresh berries.

    yeah but are you eating the 0% .. or the plain with fat?

    by the time you add stuff to the very plain and kinda sour taste of plain - youve added 30 or 40 cals- why not eat a good tasting flavor like non fat strawberry, blueberry or peach?

    If adding to plain is preference - strawberries and banana - chocolate chips (tbsn) and a splash of coffee - any berry and maybe some sweetner (splender, etc) a handful of any cereal and berries. - a handful of any cereal on its own - with granola and or chia seeds. -

    I still say eat the flavored kind and make it easy and tasty.

    I use plain a lot to replace sour cream or as a base for fruit dip (add sugar free jello pudding or some honey)

    The choices are immense!

    I enjoy adding a teaspoon or two of reduced sugar strawberry jam along with a little granola.

    Another favorite of mine, is to add the yogurt to a cup of fruit (Berries, bananas, melon, whatever we happen to have on hand) again, along with a little granola.

    Hope you find something you enjoy!

    I really like to put in about a tablespoon of nutella. I really have to watch how much I put in too because it is calorie dense, but the end product is very delicious and filling.

    Sweeten it with something e.g brown sugar ( I use real honey) and add some walnuts (chop them in small pieces)! Its delish and keeps you full for ages !!
