I really like the Dannon light n fit chocolate raspberry and strawberry cheesecake and Oinkos triple zero coconut crème.

Also which kids have the highest protein content that you have seen? The above have 12 and 15 but I have seen a brand that had 19 grams but cant remember which one.

Also... Siggi's icelandic yogurt(skyr) is fantastic. It's got lots of protein and little sugar.

Mix it with a bit of honey, dash of cayenne and some roasted garlic, blend with a stick blender, add a dab of water if necessary to loosen then serve under a nice piece of roasted chicken. Maybe a bit of salt and pepper.

Mix it with a can of petite pois peas, fresh mint, dab of water, salt and pepper and use under a piece of fish or on some pasta with vegetables. Can change from mint and use sage for chicken or basil or even rosemary. Blend with stick blender well. Should be a bit loose.

Mix it with a bit of Crystal hot sauce, apple jelly, dab of water, salt and pepper and blend well to serve under a nice piece of pork or as a spread instead of mayonnaise on a pulled pork sandwich.

Or just add honey or homemade jam and eat out of the container on the couch.

When I'm having an especially busy week, prob 1/2 my calories come from Fage 2% and whatever I eat with it (nuts, fruit, chopped cucumber, as a baked potato topping, schmeared on pita w/salt & cracked pepper). Costco sells the largest containers at the best price per ounce.

Now, if we're talking greek pre-sweetened, "candy" yogurt (it's a treat, not a food), I like Liberte's coconut flavor.

Not a fan of fake sweeteners, added pectin or stabilizers, or added fiber/cellulose. Those add a graininess that is off-putting, to me.

Always keep some at my house.

If you're a Costco member, they usually sell a massive tub for a fair price. It lasts for a while.

Fage. Full fat. I'm partial to the honey and blueberry.

I also tried last week making my own - you basically just drain regular yogurt in a collander. It worked fine but I was surprised at the amount of volume you lose. There is a lot of water in regular yogurt.

I like Fage 2% alright. It's good when mixed with some sliced strawberries, bananas and honey. Prefer cottage cheese though.

And on a side note: if anyone knows where I can buy 10% fat plain Greek yogurt I'd love to know, had some while I was in Greece last week and it blew our store-bought products away.

I second the cottage cheese. Mixed with chocolate protein powder and a tad bit of water is like a desert!
