Greek yogurt is not only super healthy for you; it’s also super versatile as a high protein-lower calorie substitute in your baking and cooking. In fact, Greek yogurt contains almost half the sugar of flavored yogurts and a fraction of the fat if you use it as an alternative to sour cream or mayonnaise (for dips).

Sandwich Spread

Swipe a little Greek yogurt on your Panini as opposed to fatty butter or margarine.

Muesli Snack Attack

Mix a half cup of organic muesli with ¼ cup of Greek yogurt and a drizzle of honey as a healthy and filling way to combat mid-afternoon hunger.

Mix it with Tuna or Egg Salad

Use low fat Greek yogurt as the creamy base of your tuna or egg salad and add fresh dill, garlic, green onions, and even curry powder to the mix instead of high fat mayo.

Forgo the Cream in Sauces

Cream-based sauces are a threat to your weight loss goals, but you can still enjoy them if you substitute the heavy cream for plain Greek yogurt.

Banish Fatty Burritos

Need a topper for that burrito? Put down the sour cream and add a dollop of Greek yogurt to cut calories and fat, but not flavor. The same can work for tacos and nachos too!

Healthy Deviled Eggs

Mix your deviled egg yolks with a bit of green yogurt, avocado, and dill rather than Miracle Whip or mayo so you get just the good fats.
