What To Mix With Greek Yogurts (Plain Or Vanilla)

[shues138 35]

So basically I eat greek yogurt EVERY DAY for Breakfast (and I love it!) I usually buy the one's with the fruit on the bottom and add a little granola. My DBF made the suggestion to get the big tub of either the plain or vanilla and add whatever to it.

Any suggestions?

Add fresh fruit. Blueberries and strawberries are good!

maybe some splenda for sweetness, or the sugar free jams would be good mixed in, kind of like the fruit on the bottom.

I agree with the above post also try pumpkin puree with cinnamon or applesauce with cinnamon. By switching to plain you will save yourself a lot of unwanted sugars.

My nutritionist told me to avoid the ones with fruit already in the because they have about 17g sugar. I mix peaches packed in Water (drained) or I mix my Protein Powder in it. I prefer ricotta cheese over Greek yogurt. It stays with me longer.

Chopped liver may be a option!! HAHAAHAHA

I buy the sugar free Torani syrups, I have vanilla and caramel. I add a tbl Syrup and some fruit or granola. Love it!

I just started adding chopped strawberries to mine and thought to myself, why didn't I do this before! Yum! I do buy a yogurt from Ralphs called CarbMaster. It is their brand and though it's not greek yogurt it has 8 grams of Protein and only 60 calories.

I add the plain to Soups, cheese sauce as a topping on anything you might put sour cream on its lower cal and higher Protein. I use it a lot in liquid and Soft stages to increase protein. A little in broth ( my dr approved before check with yours). During the clear liquid stage ; added a lot of flavor and protein.

Almost every morning during the work week, I have plain greek yogurt (which I get in two large tubs at costco for $4) with some frozen berries and about a tsp of agave drizzled on top. By the time I get to work, the berries have defrosted, but kept the yogurt cold at the same time. It is the perfect breakfast!

Also, if you're in need of a chocolate fix...it is really good mixed with some cocoa powder and either stevia, splenda, or agave...to cut out the bitterness.

[shues138 35]

How much cocoa and sweetener would you add? That could help with my chocolate cravings lol

One more mix in with eggs scramble them. Very good high Protein.< /p>

[bellaloco 13]

I just add to taste...there are not very many calories in straight-up cocoa powder, and zero in both stevia and splenda, so it doesn't add too many extra calories

I like mine plain with walnuts, pumpkin and sunflower seeds, some chia seeds and a drizzle of honey. Grain free "muesli". Really yummy and it gets me through the morning. Sometimes I defrost berries overnight and add those in too.
