I received this fun package in the mail from Chobani a couple weeks ago…
I loved the way they packaged everything….and, look what was inside!
Yogurt! How ’bout that! I love Chobani yogurt SO MUCH. It is hands down my favorite yogurt out there. It’s so delicious (I think it tastes like a treat!) and I love that they only use natural, high quality ingredients. I also love that it has twice as much protein (13+ grams) as regular yogurt! Yay.
I love eating Greek yogurt as a snack and I love cooking with it. When I received this fun package, I decided to get creative and come up with some fun ways to use yogurt! BTW, Chobani has a bunch of yummy recipes on their site in the Chobani Kitchen. I’m going to try several of them. But, for now here are some of my own little creations!
I enjoyed the fat free peach one all by itself. Yum!
My 2 littlest boys enjoyed the 2% Pineapple one. They loved it, but I’m more of a Fat-free yogurt kind of gal. 😉
I was especially excited to try this kind,
Vanilla Chocolate Chunk!?? Yes, please. It was super yum, but I wish it came in fat free. 🙁
Here are some of the fun creations I’ve come up with the past couple weeks (recipes soon to follow).
Healthy Yogurt Vegetable Dip!
Chocolate Protein Pudding!
AND, Creamy Chicken Vegetable Stir Fry!
These recipes are definitely all “keepers!” I loved them all. I will post all the recipes ASAP. I love how versatile yogurt is. You can pretty much substitute it for sour cream, mayo or cream cheese in most recipes! Awesome!
I hope y’all are having a wonderful day! xoxo
Chobani provided me with the yogurt free of charge, yet the opinions expressed are, as always, entirely my own!

I truly wish I liked yogurt. I have never cooked with yogurt because of it. Do you think you can taste the yogurt when you make something with it being one of the ingredients?
Melanie says
Amy, that’s how I feel about fish! I wish I loved fish, but I just don’t! Ya know, I do think you can still taste the yogurt a little bit when you cook with it. The flavor’s not too strong, but I can still tell it’s yogurty. So sorry! 🙁

I love Chobani too. Fage is also a yummy and healthy option. I look forward to checking out your other healthy eating tips. That yogurt pudding idea is great!
Melanie says
I’ve seen Fage, but never tried it because I love Chobani too much! The yogurt pudding is so yummy. I plan to put the recipe up tomorrow.
Sherry says
I love Chobani, too! Have you ever tried adding chia seeds? They are extremely healthy, and don’t have a strong taste or texture. I add chia seeds, walnuts, and berries to vanilla Chobani for a meal!
Melanie says
I love chia seeds and have put them in yogurt before, but I always forget to do it! Chia seeds, walnuts and berries with vanilla Chobani sounds like heaven! Thanks so much for the tip….I’m definitely going to try that! 😉

I absolutely love Greek yogurt. For years I thought I hated yogurt but it was just the sugary, thin stuff that passed as yogurt in my childhood.
I love to warm up some blueberries for a few seconds in the microwave, add half a mashed banana and some vanilla fat free Greek yogurt for a yummy after dinner treat or for breakfast.
Melanie says
I feel the same way about yogurt too! I never used to like it, but I LOVE Greek yogurt! Your blueberry banana creation sounds FABULOUS! I’m definitely going to try it. Thanks for the tip!!
Ashley @ thesweatylifeblog says
I love greek yogurt also and I’ve been trying to think of more ways to incorporate it into my cooking lately! Easy and tasty way to add more protein!!!
Melanie says
Thanks! I hope you love these recipes. I <3 Greek yogurt too! 😉
