Tastes good with a scoop of protein powder mixed in! or Fiber one cereal and blueberries.
This is what I do - vanilla protein powder with greek yogurt is kind of like eating a thick and creamy cheesecake pudding nom nom nom nom0 -
I tried mixing in a tablespoon of peanut butter, or PB2, like someone on here suggested, with a packet of Splenda. SO GOOD! Tastes like a dessert to me. YUM!0

I think I am going to run to the grocery store on my lunch hour and buy some GREEK YOGURT!0

Yep, my fav way is definitely with a spoon.
Perfect for:
protein shakes
breakfast parfait
great in a lot of different veggie dips
all kinds of endless dessert options
Make this one last night for dessert: plain greek yogurt + smashed up banana + 1 tbs Nutella all mised put and put in the freezer for ~ 45 minutes. Gets me all excited just thinking about it!0 -
Greek Yogurt has become a staple for me.
Hollandaise sauce for eggs benedict or over veggies like asparagus
I dont really have a recipe. Sometimes I make it for 1 and sometimes for 4, but generally:
1/2 cup non fat plain Greek Yogurt in a double boiler (Metal bowl over pot of simmering water)
Add juice form half a lemon
Dash salt
1-2 TBS of butter (I usually leave the butter out. Keep in mind "real" hollandaise has 1-2 sticks of butter and 4-6 egg yolks)
1 egg yolk (I usually leave the egg yolk out too. Add it last and take it off the heat to stir it in or you may scramble the egg)
Dash of cayenne. This heat makes up for the fact this is not as luxurious as the real deal.
Greek Tzeke sauce (I need to look up spelling) The sauce on Gyros etc.
One container non fat plain Greek Yogurt
add finely diced cucumber (remove seeds)
salt
Dill paste
Lemon juice
Good on potato
Good on salad
Good on Gyros
Much better tasting and much much better for you than sour cream or salad dressing0 -
Definitely going to have to try this again, as the first time I did not care for it! Thanks for all the ideas!0

My NEW guilty pleasure is Oikos FF Vanilla Greek Yogurt with 1 Tbsp of mini chocolate chips. I actually enjoy it more than my former favorite guilty pleasure of chocolate chip ice cream. I'm totally stealing some of the ideas on here!! Great topic!0

I love it with honey and frozen raspberries (unsweetened kind) the best! Mmmm0

To people on the fence re Greek Yogurt, try different brands.
I like them all , but they are different.
Oikos and Chobiana are much more different than say Dannon and Activa "regular" yogurt.
I think Chobiana is thicker.
I like Oikos for most recipes.0 -
I was all for 0% Fage, until I tried the 2%. So much nicer and not much difference in nutritional content
However, I do tend to buy the supermarket's own brand more now to help costs0 -
Chobani is sooooooooooo good!0
