Okay so I now just buy the big container of plain Greek yogurt because it can be mixed into smoothies and blended with fruit to make different flavors but I also have two super simple recipes to use plain yogurt that are super good.

First one is a peanut butter dip that I enjoy with apple slices. It’s just Greek yogurt, Peanut Butter powder and Splenda. I didn’t measure at all but used about 3 or 4 heaping spoonfuls of yogurt and mixed in two heaping spoonfuls of PB Fit and a package of Splenda which is optional but I prefer it sweet. I’m sure it’s good with any sweetener you prefer.

Second is ranch dip that is so amazing and can be made into dressing by adding water by the teaspoon to desired consistency (I make the dip and just take out some and mix the dressing as I need it so I don’t thin it all out) this way I have dip for veggies or a mayo substitute of sorts for other things. It’s just Greek yogurt, a teaspoon of apple cider vinegar, fresh dill, chives and minced garlic. I bet you could use dried but it would take more. Ooh and Salt and Pepper to taste. I used loads of seasoning but start light and keep adding until you find your perfect combo.

I absolutely love the PB dip and the Ranch is a really good sub. Better than the ones you buy in the bottle and bonus you can mix up as little or as much as you will actually use.

For the drinkable yogurt smoothies, I just use yogurt, fruit, and a bit of almond milk (I suppose you can use any milk) and then mix it in a nutra bullet or blender. If you don’t have a blender or dread dragging out your blender like I did I strongly recommend this. It’s pretty compact and easy to clean if you rinse it right away and if you don’t mind it not being fancy you can drink right out of the blender cup. I make fruit smoothies, drinkable yogurt smoothies and add healthy fruits and other flavors to my yogurt using this thing. It’s great.

I’m certainly no chef so if you are don’t judge the simplicity of these recipes. I personally love how simple they are to whip up because I will actually do it.

Can I also add a very easy dip to these. Whipped feta. Equal amounts of feta and cream cheese, salt and pepper, garlic powder and lastly a pinch of chilli flakes for dressing. Just blitz and eat

You can use Cottage cheese in place of the Cream cheese. You could use more Feta and mix it with a smaller portion of Greek yogurt to your taste

Sounds yummy 😋

I have made the yogurt and peanut powder as a dip a few times, yummy. Found it was a great way of eating apples as not my favourite fruit and also use it on bananas with some chocolate chips mixed in.

I also made bagels using almond flour, baking powder, Greek yogurt and an egg plus various toppings (sesame seeds, onion flakes etc.)

I'm a total convert to Greek yogurt since my surgery.

Ooh that Reese’s type banana sounds divine and you must share the measurements for the bagels. They sound easy enough I may actually make them more than once.

This is the recipe I used

They didn't rise as much as a 'normal' bagel so a bit harder to slice in half but great alternative with high protein count.
