I just bought some, but dont know what to do to make it taste better.
I put some honey in it today and that was good.
Any other ideas?

    Smuckers sugar-free seedless blackberry jam tastes awesome with plain Greek yogurt.

    I like putting strawberries in my plain yogurt. Honey is my favorite add-in, though.

    I add blackberries or raspberries (chopped up a bit to release the juices), plus either some walnut pieces or granola for some crunch. I I usually use fresh berries, but if I use frozen, it turns it into an "almost frozen" yogurt!

    Oh yeah..how could I forget..my current morning ritual is making a smoothie which consists of 2/3 cup Greek plain yogurt, 2/3 cup plain Kefir yogurt and 1 cup of frozen mixed fruit (mangos, peaches, strawberries, pineapple). Toss it in my ninja blender and I have a filling breakfast to drink on the way to work.

    Honey is my favorite add in as well. I added 4 strawberries, half a bananna, and some pineapple and made a smoothie! So yummy!!:drinker:

    I like using it as sour cream so I put it on my salads and potatoes. When I want something sweet adding honey or granola does the trick!

    If you eat breakfast cereal you can add the yoghurt instead of milk and some fruit as well, just yummy.:flowerforyou:

    I put honey and cereal in my morning greek yoghurt.

    But if you want to try it a savoury way, try adding fish sauce, brown sugar, ginger, coriander and lime juice. YUM.

    Make veggie dip! Just add some packaged dip mix. It's healthier than sour cream and so good!

    I have been mixing it 2 to 1 with "light" vanilla regular yogurt. 4 oz regular and 2 oz plain greek. Sometimes I will add a few berries and 1/8 cup of plain granola if I need something a little more than just the yogurt.

    when my ex left she left behind this pampered chef Hazelnut-mocha sprinkle mix. at 15 calories a serving it really spiced up the yogurt and as an added bonus she can't have it back now :P Seriously tho, the mocha flavor went really nice and the chunks of hazelnut were awesome!

    LOVE the taste of it plain :D Ilike it more than the flavored!

    I have seen a friend mix it with sugar free coffee syrups, so you can get punkin, coconut, chocolate, salted caramel yogurt :]

    I use it on baked potatoes. Also on curries if they are too hot.

    Tried it. Hated it. Ran for the hills. I like vanilla, but can't do plain. I spike the vanilla with fruit in the morning.

    I cut up half an apple, chop up two medium celery stalks and mix it with the yogurt. I eat this sometimes for breakfast
    *Also spread on whole grain/wheat toast, top it with some crushed pistachios then drizzle with a little honey. Yummers!

    For tomorrow's breakfast I'm adding some rolled oats, an apple and walnuts to it. Should be good if I have my thoughts and my taste buds working together properly lol

    strawberries, unsweetened cocoa powder, and stevia!! it tastes like chocolate covered strawberries :love:
    i also love cooking an apple in the microwave with stevia and cinnamon and adding that to greek yogurt. it tastes like an apple pie! you could even add some granola or oats on top to make it more apple pie-esque

    I love mine with a little salt and water. Blend it and chug it down like buttermilk.
