1 small container of Fat Free Vanilla Yogurt
1 - 2 scoops Chocolate Protein Powder
.5 - 1 tbspn Udo's oil or Mac Nut oil

Add yogurt and protien to a mini chopper/food processor, mix well.

Drizzle in oil as you continue to pulse mixture

Maybe my taste buds can be a bit strange from time to time but when I can have this on diet.... it taste like chocolate pudding to me, just a bit thinner.

I just had cottage cheese with apple butter and a sprinkle of splenda. Been a long time since I had that. Remember when I used to eat it all the time??

Try it with FAGE Greek Yogurt instead. Zero fat, 20g protein per serving - and it's thicker than regular yogurt.

**GirlyMuscle** · 02-24-2009, 08:55 PM

How many carbs are in greek yogurt? Could it be used on a low carb diet?

9 g carbs in the zero fat variety - and 20g protein, not 10 as I previously mistyped. (fixed)

yes it looked quite gross but was actually very yummy!

Agreed the Greek Yogurt is Good!!!

Strained plan fat free yogurt not made with gelatin = Greek style yogurt, only costs less. Much of the lactose is drained out during the straining, reducing the carbs and doubling the protein concentration. I use a paper towel lined strainer. Add two large tubs of plan fat free yogurt, let drain over night.

So this has been driving me crazy... Do you use the 'no salt added' cottage cheese or what kind do you use?
