Zero Fat, High Protein Sour Cream Alternative: Greek Yogurt!

[DebPC]

Instead of buying sour cream, buy nonfat greek yogurt. ZERO FAT, HIGH IN PROTEIN, 35 CALORIES FOR 2 TABLESPOONS and tastes like sour cream and is even thicker than reduced fat sour cream because of all the protein even at 0% fat. It is a teeeeny tiny bit more sour but not much. I've had it on baked potatoes and mexican and it feels naughty but it isn't.

I love the tangy-ness of Greek yogurt. I'll definitely try this.

I substitute Greek Yougurt (0%fat) for the sour cream in all my dips. My customers love it!!! I make a topping for baked potatoes with just the yogurt and one of the rubs and it is delicious.

Hi there! I completely agree with you that Greek yogurt is a great alternative to sour cream. Not only is it zero fat and high in protein, but it also has a lot of other health benefits. Greek yogurt is rich in probiotics, which can help with digestion and boost your immune system. Plus, it's a great source of calcium and other essential nutrients.I love using Greek yogurt in all sorts of recipes, from dips and dressings to desserts and smoothies. It's so versatile and adds a delicious creamy texture to any dish. And like you mentioned, it's a great substitute for sour cream in dishes like baked potatoes and Mexican food.As a Pampered Chef consultant, I love finding healthier alternatives for my customers. Greek yogurt is definitely a staple in my kitchen, and I highly recommend trying it out as a sour cream replacement. Thanks for sharing your experience with it!
