Fat Free Plain Greek Yogurt!!!

Do you LOVE sour cream?  Then you should LOVE Plain Greek Yogurt!!

This is one of the most versatile ingredients I use in my kitchen.  You can put it in smoothies, make dips out of it, make sandwich spreads (instead of May0) top your taco’s with it and I swear to you – you wouldn’t know that I was using Yogurt instead of Sour Cream.

Let’s do a comparison!!

Knudson Sour Cream:

Fage 0% Plain Greek Yogurt

What a huge difference huh!!  If you strain the yogurt, it becomes even more the consistency of sour cream and then is great as a replacement for cream cheese

and for other recipes where you want something thicker.

Usually the downside of yogurt is that it is very high in fat, but this FF Greek Yogurt takes care of that!!   It is excellent to add a packet of Stevia and Blueberries or Honey

and Peaches and eat it as a snack.  But whatever you decide to do with it – it is good for you!!!  This has become a regular on my grocery list and a staple in our home.

There are many great Brands and flavors of Greek Yogurt, my favorites are Chobani Peach and the Fage plain.
