HOW MANY THINGS CAN YOU DO WITH GREEK YOGURT?

You will never open my fridge and not be able to find Oikos Greek Yogurt. I have discovered that I can use it in every meal of the day if I wanted to. Whether is pancakes, Tzatziki, twice baked potatoes, salad dressing, dips…It’s the perfect way to add protein to any meal.

Check out this amazing recipe for Cauliflower Mashed Potatoes! Try it this week and bring it next week to your Thanksgiving dinner. Then you will have a perfect side dish for your turkey, and you won’t be tempted by full fat casseroles and souffles. This is a great dish for Vegans and Vegetarians who have trouble fitting in all their protein everyday!Remember the average person gains between 7 to 10 pounds between Thanksgiving and New Years. Don’t let yourself be part of that statistic!

FittChick “Approved” Cauliflower Mashed Potatoes:

Ingredients…
* 1 head cauliflower
* 1 cup chicken stock (or vegetable stock)
* 1 individual container 0% Greek Yogurt
* chives
* fresh garlic
* salt and pepper to taste

-Take out a pot and cut up a head of cauliflower into pieces and throw it in. Then pour in 1 cup chicken stock, chopped garlic, salt and pepper. Once the Chicken stock comes to a boil, cover and let simmer for 20 minutes. Once the Cauliflower is soft you can mash it with a potato masher or transfer to your Cuisinart to puree.

-Once your ready to serve, put chives on top and add extra seasoning for your liking. I added some spray butter and extra sea salt to the top of mine and sprinkled Parmesan cheese on top for the kids.

*This recipe is a keeper! Hope you enjoy it as much as my family does!
