    Salsa dressing for taco salads: 2 Tablespoons salsa and 1/4 cup plain yogurt.

    For tex-mex salads: dice a chipotle pepper, stir into NF plain yogurt. BOOM!

    Basically any dressing recipe that calls for mayo will be good with plain yogurt in it. Full fat or lowfat regular yogurt works better than Greek, in my experience (there will still be a lot less fat than bottled dressing), and nonfat yogurt just doesn't work at all unless you add some fat, like avocado or oil.

    True. The canned chipotles we use are in adobo sauce, which strikes me as slightly oily.

    I'm in love with Opa as well. The Feta Dill is my favorite. I still haven't gotten around to using it on salad yet. It's great as a veggie dip! :smile:

    Check out the EasiYo website for lots of ideas. Best yogurt I have ever tasted & it supposedly keeps for 2 weeks in the fridge - not in my house!
