Sour cream is so amazing! (I use Daisy light)

My favorite thing to do with it is make "creamy" dressings for salads. It's so good and so low calorie. Sometimes I mash up avocado and mix it with sour cream and some black pepper, put it over some romaine and add some grilled chicken, onions and other veggies or sometimes I mix it with salsa and throw some taco seasoned turkey in it, avocado and other veggies in it to make a "taco salad" of sorts. It really hits the spot when you crave some fatty creamy dressing, but don't want to get a calorie overload.

What are your favorite ways to use sour cream? I know there's some other fabulous ideas of how to put it to good use!

    We've quit using sour cream at home. Instead, we use Greek yogurt.

    I like it some of the same ways you like your sour cream ... mixed with salsa, used on taco salad, etc.

    I also like to mix in a bit of cumin and red pepper flakes and smear it thick onto a whole wheat tortilla before tossing on some chicken, cheese and spinach. When I'm not pushing my fat intake, I'll even mix a tablespoon of the yogurt with tablespoon of mayo, then add the spices.

    Stroganoff is the best.
