    Great video, Alicia! This was extremely informative and helpful.
    I liked how you started out by talking about prices and brands. I have never tried the Walnut brand, but I will have to at some point. Greek yogurt can be expensive at times.
    I think that Greek yogurt is an excellent addition to smoothies, as well as baked goods. I mix it with water and buttermilk in order to stretch buttermilk, too.
    I had not thought about using it as a substitute for sour cream in dip mixes, though.
    Once again, I learned a lot. Thanks for sharing!

    • @AliciaLynnYT
      @AliciaLynnYT  4 года назад

      Hi Parnell! I love my Greek yogurt! Lol I highly recommend the Walmart brand. It is one of the more inexpensive and best ones out there. I remember you saying you have used it to stretch buttermilk. I haven't tried it that way but I'm sure it works great! It works really well as a sub for sour cream, that is one of the main ways I use it. Thanks as always for watching my friend and if I don't get a chance to tell you later, have a great Thanksgiving! 😊🦃

    We've been wanting to watch this because we eat so much yogurt. We're not picky about brands either. We just make sure it doesn't have a ton of sugar. We use it mainly as dessert too, but also to make dressing. Need to use it for casseroles and pizza dough! Lots of great tips.

      Greek yogurt is so great. And I am the same about not caring about brand but going with the low sugar kind. I made the french onion dip with it during Thanksgiving and it was so good I ate half a bag of potato chips with it. Lol Kind of defeated the purpose of a healthier dip! Thanks for watching guys!

Also I like the idea of using it in salad recipes in place of mayo. I was able to eat a broccoli or waldof salad someone made at work one time with yogurt.

It would be nice if WW didn't change it every couple of years like they do.

      @AliciaLynnYT  4 года назад

      I have no idea why it is called Greek yogurt, that is a good question! It is different than regular yogurt though. The extra whey is strained out of it causing it to be thicker and creamier. It also has more protein and less sugar which I love! I've never made tzatziki but I would guess it would be the main ingredient in that. Thanks for watching!
