7 healthy dishes that are made with Greek yogurt

Print this recipe
The first time I ate Greek yogurt, I was a bit surprised at the thickness. But it grew on me. Fast. The thick creamy product is a perfect substitute for sour cream, and it's packed with protein. While you'll still get some sugar content, you'll find Greek yogurt can be significantly lower in added ingredients.

4. Greek yogurt peanut butter dip (h/t Food Fun Life)
Apples and peanut butter are a classic. It's a healthy pairing from the get-go, but when you add some greek yogurt and a bit of honey, this after-school favorite goes to the next level. It's creamy, a little sweet, and a little nutty. Perfect.
