I tried Chobani Greek Yogurt in Lemon for the first time today. It wasn't bad but I admit the texture threw me off for a little bit.

Any recommendations for other flavors or your favorite mix-ins if you buy plain?

    You can mix the plain greek yogurt in anything that you would use sour cream! :smile:

    Greek yogurt is my favorite! I buy the Fage or Chobani plain and sweeten it with Splenda. Then I had a cup of frozen berries and a tablespoon of chopped walnuts. I love it!

    A few ideas:

    - Mixing walnuts, almonds, and honey.
    - Crushed black pepper, strawberries, and balsamic vinegar.
    - Cucumber and cilantro.
    - Cranachan -- Toasted oatmeal, vanilla, raspberries, and whiskey.

    These are just some common ones for me.

    I like Chobani pineapple the best. I think it might help that it's 2%, it seems a lot creamier than the 0% flavors and sort of made me think about cheesecake.

    Plain with fresh fruit or dried fruit or frozen fruit, or honey, or agave nectar or cereal or combo of few things. also dill, salt and pepper and garlic powder for salad. You can even mix in the mixes you put in water. Endless possibilities!

    I add honey and cinnamon with fruit for breakfast. You can also make a nice veggie dip by sprinkling some garlic, dill and lemon juice. I also sub it for anything that calls for sour cream. It's good for making your own protien shakes too!

    So many ways to use Greek yogurt!!

    I agree, the Chobani Lemon has a bit of a weird consistency. I love Chobani Vanilla. Can add a bit of honey to it to make it a little sweeter. But it's great to mix cereal with. I also mix pumpkin puree in with it, which is pretty delicious.

    I use the plain as a topping on my morning oats - Creamy and delicious, a nice tart contrast to warm, goo-ey cinnamon-y oats! :bigsmile:

    Edit: It's also a great balanced breakfast with natural PB or egg whites whipped in... 1/4-1/3 cup of oatmeal goes a long way when you're adding in a jolt of protein as well

    for a healthy dinner, we mix low fat greek yoghurt in with a tin of drained tuna (add some sweet corn and spring onions/scallions or whatever they are called in the States). we have it with a jacket potato and salad or just the salad. we don't add any mayonnaise.

    for pudding/dessert, i add a sprinkle of cinnamon and nutmeg to low fat greek yoghurt, and add a half a teaspoon of vanilla essence. if you have a sweet tooth, throw in a little honey. i also sometimes add some LSA (linseed, sunflower, almond mix from the healthfood shop or supermarket) to boost protein.

    i try to stay away from adding fruit and honey as it's just extra calories i don't need.
