Why I Love Cooking with Greek Yogurt

One of my favorite things about Greek yogurt is that you can use it instead of higher-calorie ingredients like sour cream or mayo in your meals or snacks to give you a light and healthier option that doesn't sacrifice flavor. 

With Greek yogurt being so versatile, naturally high in protein, healthy, and macro-friendly, it's one of my favorite fridge staples! I use it every day to make breakfasts, dips, smoothies, salad dressings, desserts, and more.

FAQs

How do you add more protein to Greek yogurt?

You can boost the protein in Greek yogurt by stirring in protein powder, powdered peanut butter, or cottage cheese. Adding toppings like chopped nuts, seeds, or high-protein granola also helps. For savory options, mix in shredded chicken, tuna, or beans for a protein-packed meal or snack.

What is the highest protein Greek yogurt?

The highest protein Greek yogurts tend to be nonfat or low-fat plain varieties, delivering 16 to 20 grams of protein per serving. Popular high-protein picks include Fage Total 0%, Oikos Pro, and Oikos Triple Zero. Some protein-fortified options offer up to 25 grams per serving. Always check the nutrition label, as protein content can vary widely.

What can I mix with yogurt for more protein?

For sweet options, blend Greek yogurt with nut butter, chia or hemp seeds, granola, or protein powder. For savory meals, try mixing in shredded meat like chicken or turkey, smoked salmon, mashed beans, or cooked lentils. These add-ins boost protein and make your yogurt mix more filling.

Is Greek yogurt better than regular yogurt for protein?

Yes. Greek yogurt delivers about twice the protein of regular yogurt thanks to the straining process that removes much of the liquid whey, resulting in a denser, higher-protein product.
