Greek Yogurt




What can be prepared:  Yogurt can be used to make sauces, desserts, smoothies and salad dressings. 
Main ingredient:  Milk
Texture:  Although it’s main ingredient is milk, it can differ in thickness. For instance, Greek yogurt is thicker than regular yogurt.
Nutrition:  The main difference of Greek yogurt is that it has more of a nutritional value. Because Greek yogurt has more of its whey liquid removed, it is rich in protein.  As a matter of fact, Greek yogurt has twice the amount of protein than regular yogurt. Another advantage to eating Greek yogurt is that it contains fifty percent less in sodium than regular yogurt.
Tip: Next time you buy yogurt, try Greek yogurt!
