What do you use your greek yogurt for?

I eat plain Fage fat-free greek yogurt with ground flaxseed and fruit for snacks. I use it in place of sour cream in recipes/sauces and on baked potatoes.

I love to make dip for grilled chicken, using greek yogurt, lemon juice, oregano, and ground black pepper.

I put 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt in my morning smoothie.

Replacement for sour cream (I especially enjoy it on Morningstar Farms Garden Veggie Burger)
Tzatziki sauce (google Alton Brown's recipe but just use greek yogurt instead of straining plain yogurt)
Pumpkin pie dip
Pumpkin roll
Blend in smoothies

I use it to saute my mushrooms. It almost makes a cream sauce. Adds some flavor along with some garlic and a small amount of butter. Im looking to enjoy my veggies!!

This sounds SOOO good... I must try!

I've recently been eating plain greek yogurt wtih pomegranate seeds- it's awesome! But sadly, pomegranates are just about out of season- and I'm a firm believer of buying what's in season!
We use it in place of sour cream on Mexican dishes, and always with some chopped green onion on a baked sweet potato.
Use your food chopper / processor and chop up some cucumber, dill and garlic, a squeeze of lemon juice and add that to plain non fat greek-- you'll have a yummy dip for pita chips or veggies.
Have fun......

And damn those pancakes look awesome!

I use it to make ranch... 1 6oz. container of greek yogurt with 1 oz. of ranch DRESSING mix (not dip mix!), then add FF milk until you get your desired consistency.

I've also added salsa and taco sauce to this to use as a salad dressing with a bit of a kick. Yum!

I put it in my smoothies. I've also used Lipton soup mix to make veggie dip. And as a sub for sour cream for any Mexican food or on potatoes

GY + protein powder

optional toppers
fruit
nuts
cereals

put in freezer for about 20-30mins

enjoy

eat with fruit, or make tzatziki
or rare occasion, use as a substitute for sour cream

Some of the above suggestions, plus mix in a tablespoon or two of peanut butter and some honey, and dip a banana or graham crackers or pretzels or what have you in it.

Greek yogurt chicken (source - http://megnificentlife.blogspot.com/2012/05/skinny-greek-yogurt-chicken.html)

one cup greek yogurt
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
teaspoon garlic poweder
teaspoon seasoned salt
half teaspoon black pepper

mix together, smother over 4 chicken breasts, bake for 45 minutes at 350F

I also use it in mashed potatoes, mixed with a little ketchup to make sauce for tuna pasta and in smoothies.

Actually i was just talking to a girl at work about this...she told me that she has made homemade Tzatziki Sauce with it.

1 tube of 0 fat plain Greek yogart
1/2 of a cucumber
Garlic (minced) to taste..

Chop up the cucumber and mix it with the garlic, then add to the yogart...

I'm definitly going to make this...maybe some of you would like to try it also!

I made tzatziki with 0 fat greek yogurt once. Never again! :laugh:

My recipe is

1 24 oz container greek yogurt
1/4 olive oil
1/4 cup lemon juice
1/2 - 1 whole english cucumber grated and strained
minimum 8 cloves of garlic, chopped
salt
pepper


Squeezing the water from the cucumber is key, to avoid making the tzatziki too thin. Also, take care while combining the ingredients to just fold everything together. Too much stirring can also make it watery.

Goes good on pretty much everything. Try it with tuna instead of mayo....

to eat with a spoon

I use vanilla Greek yogurt to mix in fruit or cereal for breakfast or snacks or just eat it by itself. I use plain Greek yogurt in place of anything I would normally use sour cream, and I have even heated/baked it in recipes and it does just fine. I add it to whole wheat burritos, in cream sauces, on baked potatoes or just anywhere I would use sour cream. I have used plain, vanilla and other flavors in smoothies as well. Be sure you are actually getting a high protein Greek yogurt. There are a few out there that have the word "Greek" on the packaging but have no more protein than regular yogurt so you're not getting the full benefit. I just love it! It's one of the best healthy things out there in my opinion. Enjoy!
