I am really happy to be a co-host for Kristina @ From City Corporate to Suburb Mama Simple Steps to Healthy Living Linky Party
today!
I’ve made quite a few recipes from this cookbook and haven’t been
disappointed yet! Each recipe is chock
full of healthy TASTY goodness you CAN’T go wrong!
I recently tried something that might sound a little foreign to some
of you but hear me out. It is FANTASTIC
AND HEALTHY! It’s called yogurt cheese.
I used it in place our sour cream in a 7 layer dip served at my son’s
3rd birthday party. Guess
what? I got a zillion complements on the
dip!!!
The ONLY component to yogurt cheese?
Greek yogurt!
What do you do?
Strain green yogurt in a cheesecloth (or i just poured mine into an old CLEAN dish towel) over a colander overnight or
for at least 2 hours.
Then use it as you would sour cream.
Then use it as you would sour cream.
Why use yogurt cheese instead of sour cream? It is SO much better for you! Greek yogurt is low in suger, high in calcium
& high in protein. It’s a perfect
addition to a healthy diet!
Little tweaks like this can make a world of difference when used in conjunction with a healthy diet!
It’s easy and yummy! Why not?
And now a word about this FANTASTIC Linky from Kristina!!!

Welcome the Simple Steps to Healthy Living linky party! I'm so excited you're here and I cannot wait to see what you have to share with us.
If you're a regular on my blog, you know that I'm passionate about making things easy, especially if I'm really committed to it. I rarely follow a recipe if it has more than 5-6 steps and I'll rarely make something a habit if it seems to hard or overwhelming!
One of my goals when I first started blogging was to show that it's possible to overhaul your lifestyle, one step at a time so that it doesn't seem too overwhelming. I hope that I accomplish this when I do my simple steps to healthy living!
I'm so excited to share this journey with you! And have you share what you've learned as well! And I'm thrilled to have some wonderful ladies with me today co-hosting!
But First....I'd love for you to check out these lovely links from the last party!

I love yogurt cheese! (At least I did when I could eat dairy!!) thanks so much for co-hosting lady! xoxo
ReplyDeleteI'm almost willing to try it... I love sour cream! I hate yogurt. It makes me gag! I'd love to find a way to work it into my diet in some sneaky kinda way- this might work!
