Help please - I have a tub of Greek Yogurt. Now what?

It makes a great breakfast. Portion it out into a bowl, I think 1 cup is about 140 calories. Add 2 or 3 packets of splenda or whatever sweetener you like, then add in some fresh fruit (I like berries or melon), then sprinkle on some Kashi Go Lean Crunch or Special K granola for crunch. I eat this for breakfast a lot, and sometimes for lunch if I want something light. It has lots of protein. You can also make sauces and dressings with the yogurt. Go to AllRecipes.Com, you can search recipes by ingredients you have, that will probably give you some ideas.

You can take a bit of curry powder and a tiny bit of basil, add a few crushed corriander seeds and a tsp of tumeric. Blend mixture well and marinate chicken thighs or breasts (thighs offer up more flavour in this case) for 8 hours or more. Bake mixture or BBQ, it is beautful off the BBQ!

Chop cucumbers into tiny cubes, add dill, garlic salt, black pepper and any other spice you like. Makes a good dip for vegetables for you and chips for the kids.

Put it in the blender with some fruit and then freeze it for later. I use mine primarily for smoothies. 1/2 cup yogurt, scoop protein powder, 8 oz OJ, 4 oz water, then shake it all up. Perfect afterwork drink.

have a baked potato for lunch. Put the yogurt right on top and add whatever veggies you like. I like steamed broccoli and a bit of dill.

also, I put a tsp of honey and blueberries or strawberries.......or mmmmmmmmmmm BRB I need some greek yogurt!!!:laugh:

I like handful of strawberries or blackberries in my Greek Yogurt. I only eat the Fage brand.

use it as a salad dressing ...
chop up tomatoes, cucumber, onions, and u can even add lettuce...salt and pepper to taste and yogurt . Tastes really good when the tomato juices are infused with it.

I love this dip! (Even my husband who protested the entire time I made it loves it! Lol) When I made it, I did leave out the bacon but I am sure it tastes just as good with it on.

I thought I bumped this when it was posted so I've been searching through all my posts to find it! :noway: I'm in the same boat now w/ my Greek yogurt, so BUMP! :laugh:

Use it with granola ...so good!! Or use it in tomato sauce for spaghetti.

I can write bump. But I have an inkling that bump means that you more savvy mfpers are able to ear mark your posts. For the unskilled could any one explain in really simple language how you do this? The salad dressing recipe looks a amazing. I would love to be able to be more efficient when searching for articles or posts. Thanks ahead!

Just click where it says "My Topics" and it will show you all of your posts. This works, but there's a better way.

It's better than bookmarks because it saves a snapshot of the page so you have it for future reference, even if the page changes or goes away, you still have the snapshot. You can organize it into projects. For example, you could create one that's called MyFitnessPal Recipes. Then you can add tags and notes to find it easily.

And...my favoritist thing: plain greek yogurt with some lemon curd swirled in. O.M.G delicious!! And maybe half a graham cracker crushed on top? YUM

I use it as sour cream (we used it to top our veggie tacos the other night) or cream cheese( as a for dip melba toast) or top it with fruit/honey. Love all these great ideas--I'll have to steal some!!
