Fage Yogurt
Have any of you tried Fage Yogurt before? It tastes just like sour cream but can be used in all kinds of exciting ways.
Today for lunch this is what I did:
1 container Fage Yogurt (0% fat)
2 tbsp sugar free apricot preserves
Splenda to taste
1 tbsp slivered Almonds
14 grams protein
3 grams fat (from almonds)
150 calories
6 grams sugar
I have to tell you this was SO GOOD!! I'm so happy I've found this yogurt and I plan on experimenting with it again. YUMMY!!!

You're welcome, Leesa.
I just found this recipe using Fage Yogurt that sounds really good too....
1 Cup Fage yogurt
1 small can fat free refried beans (spicy or not - you decide)
1/2 Cup salsa (be careful - some makers add sugar)
Heat in microwave and serve with favorite dipping item.

YUM....all kinds of lemony goodness.

Wow, this fage yogurt is very versatile. I will be keeping an eye out for it when I go grocery shopping with the parental unit on Thursday!
