Plain Greek Yogurt ~ what can I do with it??



Recommended Posts

I am one week post op and bought some today. I actually made a savoury dish from it - I put it in a blender with some smoked salmon, a bit of cream cheese, a bit of milk to make it runnier and some cayenne pepper and salt. It was yummy and one of the only things so far that has made me feel a bit full.

That sounds good. I am making that tomorrow.

I did this recipe - I didn't use the fruit, just made the jello/yogurt mix. Very good! I used sf cherry Jello and sf vanilla Torani Syrup.

I use it in place of half the skim milk when making sugar free pudding and I'll even add a scope of Protein Powder I also will throw in a couple of tablespoons when I make my shakes.< /p>

Thanks these are some great ideas.

This evening I put a packet of Splenda and sprinkled some cinnamon in. That was good.

I assume at some point I will be able to have fresh vegetables. Mixing it with Hidden Valley Ranch would make a very healthy dip to serve with veggies.

This "healthy eating" is a whole new thing to me but I am catching on. LOL

Does anyone cook with it as in a hot dish?

Yogurt mixed with curry seasoning coat small bite size pieces of skewered chicken then grill on your outdoor grill..... Mmmmm!

You can even grate the cucumber With a cheese grater. Faster and softer

My favorite is to mix two cups Greek yogurt with a pack of sugar free cream cheese pudding mix. It makes several servings (at least four depending on how much you eat I guess) and then I microwave some frozen strawberries for a minute and add them to it for a strawberry cheesecake-ish taste.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
