Greek yogurt is the only “out” for many who can’t handle lactose, plus — ounce-for-ounce — it’s got 1.5 to 2 times the protein of regular yogurt, half the sugar, and less than half the sodium.
Mrs. HKMk23 swears by it.
Makes a great sub for sour cream in almost every case. Puree your favorite mix of fresh berries, freeze, then cut into plain Greek yogurt for an awesome frozen yogurt dessert. [This berry dessert is double-awesome made with fresh heavy cream, if you ever want a serious indulgence.]
I wasn’t going to mention this, but I mix Greek yogurt with lowfat cottage cheese and add ranch seasoning to it for a nifty dip with sweet bell peppers. Have had it for breakfast a couple of days in a row. You can bake with it, too. Your wife’s idea sounds very good.
I will gladly give my share of Greek yogurt ro Mrs. HKMk23. Good health to her! *hug*
