I had seen before several people who ate it to get some extra Protein in. I bought some and do not really care for the taste. For those of y'all who eat it, what do y'all add to it if anything to make it taste a little better?

I've never liked presweetened yogurt because it's too sweet. I could handle vanilla sometimes, but none of the fruit flavors. I was very excited to discover all the great ways to flavor plain Greek yogurt and customize the sweetness....

Vanilla Protein powder

Mio black cherry

pureed berries, peaches or bananas

Torani syrups....almond, English toffee, raspberry, caramel, pumpkin pie, etc

Honey (my friend is a beekeeper, so I have an unlimited supply of raw honey...use it in everything!)

I also add flax seed or steel cut oats a lot of times. And one I just discovered today....banana Protein Powder with chopped walnuts. Mmmm. I'm 13+ months out but still love my pureed stage foods.

Did you buy plain?

I do the 2% far version plain

I do a couple things

Add honey and eat it straight

Use it in cold oatmeal prep

1/2 cup rolled oats

1/2 cup yogurt

Blueberries

Blackberries

1/4 milk

Chia seeds

Let soak overnight. I like mine thick so that's why only 1/4 milk but play with it. If it's not sweet enough you can add in some honey maybe a small teaspoon or dried raisins

Your post comes on a great day. I hate greek yogurt- it is so sour and gross tasting to me. Even the Fage version with the honey wasn't something I enjoyed. I did however start eating the Yoplait whips literally today, which have 9g of Protein and 100 calories, and they are SO good! I haven't had Greek yogurt since I very first decided I didn't like it about a year ago, and today I decided that since there were so many new flavor options available, I would try the Yoplait whipped kind. I not only really like the very light, fluffy texture, but I mixed a tablespoon of granola into it, and it was like eating a desert. The downside is that it has 12g of sugar, which I was concerned might make my very sugar-sensitive sleeve sick, but I've been fine. I have traditionally had a hard time getting enough protein, so for 100 calories and 9g of protein, I am very happy with this new find!

I love Fage yogurt. I too use it in everything. I sometimes mixed it with chocolate Protein powder and then freeze it for a sort of pudding like texture. I also like mixing in a tbsp of almond butter. I mix it in with rolled oats, a dash of vanilla extract, a tiny bit of brown sugar, and some dried cranberries for when I make overnight oats. I use it instead of sour cream. Most often I just add it in my Breakfast shakes. They are usually a combo of fruit, spinach, unflavored protein powder. Occasionally I'll add some raw honey.

If you are used to the thinner sweetened yogurts it takes some getting use to the change in texture and taste.

Thanks so much for all of the suggestions!

@AvaFern I'm soooo glad you mentioned the whipped Greek yogurt. I totally agree with you about not liking the sour taste of most Greek yogurts. I also have to be "in the mood" for yogurt or the texture will gag me. I just found the whipped greek yogurt over the weekend and bought 3 flavors to try but I haven't yet. Now I don't feel quite as "afraid" to take the chance!

I mix mine with equal, peanut butter, and sugar free Torani salted caramel sugar free syrup.

I MIX A COUPLE OF TABLESPOONS INTO MY FUZZY NAVEL SYNTRAX PROTEIN DRINK. IT TASTES JUST LIKE A DREAMSICLE!
