Greek Yogurt


Greek yogurt is great on its own, but it is also a great substitute for sour cream in recipes. Thought you had to go without the creamy sauces? Try using greek yogurt instead of cream or sour cream. You can also use it instead of sour cream on tacos, on top of chili, in mashed potatoes....in just about anything! Higher in protein than regular yogurt, Greek yogurt packs a bigger nutritional punch. It has less sugar and less sodium than traditional yogurt. In addition to protein, Greek yogurt also provides important nutrients, such as calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, and potassium which help healthy bone growth. 
And let's face it...throw in a little fresh fruit and it is just plain good!
