nonfat greek yogurt is a cheat code

over the last two weeks for the holidays i have made:

french onion dip with half light sour cream and half greek yogurt - taste is indistinguishable, 1/3 the calories and extra protein

chicken salad with 70/30 split greek yogurt / mayo - far fewer calories and even more protein

pesto chicken salad with 50/50 split pesto sauce to greek yogurt, same thing

a milkshake type smoothie: one orange, light OJ, greek yogurt, frozen fruit and protein powder - 345 calories and 35 grams of protein and way better than any ice cream i’ve ever had.

small substitutions that make no real difference in taste and add up to a TON health-wise.
