I bought plain Greek yogurt last night. Haven't tried it yet, but I was wondering what tricks people use to spruce it up a little (because if it's just like regular yogurt, it's got no taste!). Thanks!

loadsa options

add oats,dried fruit,honey,cinnamon etc

add fresh fruit chopped apple/banana mixxed berries

add frozen fruit and stick it in a blended to make a smoothie.

I have actually mixed it with choc whey and froze it to make a protein pudding. this was pretty tasty with some nuts sprinkled in

Typically I will use liquid splenda and cinnamon. However, it's great with all natty. almond butter. berries etc.

I add either strawberries, or frozen blueberries. For the blueberries, mix them in frozen then let sit for a few minutes. then mix the blueberry juice into the yogurt.

it's alos thick enough that you can eat it plain if you don't don't mind the bland taste.

I just add a packet of stevia to sweeten it up!

One of my friends made it last week with SF pudding mix, froze it, then threw it in the blender with a little bit of skim milk and drank it like a smoothie. She said it was really good!

I've also mixed protein powder in with it, but I prefer to drink my pp.

At last a thread where I can admit my hopeless addiction...I am addicted to the Fage 2% Greek yogurt (no other brand tastes as good). I have anywhere from 5-7 a day...buy it by the case! Great on its own!

HEY!!!!! Just the left one.

All seriousness, Greek yogurt is great. It is pretty low carb compared to other yougurts and like 4x the protein.

You can get Fage in most supermarkets, Wholefoods etc...as long as I haven't been there first there should be plenty on the shelf...lol!
The best one in my opinion is the 2% fat.
Per 7oz.....Protein 17g, Carb 8g, Fat 4g.....130cals
