I am hearing tons about greek yogurt. Sounds like many people mix it and I just can't keep it all straight. I thought a new topic specific for greek yogurt would help. What is your favorite brand of greek yogurt? What is your favorite way to eat greek yogurt? Thanks

I just tried the Fage brand yesterday and I about flipped my lid because it was so freakin good!! I mixed half a container of the 0% Fage with a tablespoon of Yoplait fat free lemon and it tasted like the most awesome creme fresh ever made. I really hope I can still tolerate it after surgery on the 12th or I will be very disapointed.

Cabot makes a good one too. Even the Winn Dixie store brand version is pretty decent.

i mix a litte instant coffee in my oikos greek yoqurt , its very good

I cannot thank all of you for your ideas. I was just eating the yogurt plain and trying to convince myself it tasted good ( wasn't working). I am going to experiment tonight. I am a pre-sleever and compiling a cookbook for the "after".

I am craving hummus soooo badly but am still on full liquids so I'm not supposed to have it but I am thinking about mixing in a teaspoon or so into plain greek yogurt to see if It gives the yogurt that taste.

At 3 weeks post op I love Chobani Champions. Its Greek yogurt for toddlers but the size (3.5 oz) is perfect. It is high in Protein, low in sugar and calories. It's been my go to meal for the past week or so.

I am on full liquids and yesterday i dreamed up a Tzatziki-inspired yogurt drink (I'm sick of the sweet stuff).

I added a scoop of unflavoured Protein powder to a small pot of Fage 0%, a few mint leaves, a chunk of de-skinned cucumber, a tespoon of garlic paste, squeeze of lemon and a little bit of Water to thin it out. It was 30g of protein and SO good. The flavours completely masked the Protein Powder taste and so it went down a treat- my new go-to drink!

Fage is also great with a little splenda sweetener,and vanilla essence.

Oh yes and it's delish! Just make it like you would mashed potatoes but use less liquid.

My husband's family is Lebanese and we make "Lebneh" from straining plain yogurt through cheesecloth or coffee filters. Fabulous stuff!

I make a smoothie with mine. I don't mind it, but it's not something I can eat right out of the container. Here's my smoothie

1/2 cup Greek yogurt (plain)

1/2 cup vanilla soy milk

2-4 packets of Splenda

3-5 ice cubes.

1/2 -3/4 frozen blueberries (I tried strawberries, and DID NOT LIKE it at all) I do think it would work with raspberries and blackberries though.

Then I blend. Sometimes I have add a little more soy milk to help loosen it up. I get around 15 grams of Protein from it. Over time, I was able to add more yogurt and get more protein. The yogurt is very tangy and sour, so the more berries, the better.

I haven't made one of these in forever, now I think I'm going ot have make one soon. LOL

Hi I'm looking to find a good yogurt that's sugar free or some with very little if any surgery that's recommended by your nutritionist after surgery

Chobani or Fage plain yoghurt both have lots of Protein and are low fat. You can always add Splenda, vanilla essence or whatever you choose to it.

Fage 0 1 cup with 1 scoop unjury strawberry soebet protein powder. Mix. Makes 2 servings. Fage has 23g protein and unjury 21 I believe. These would taste great as a Popsicle too.
