I typically do not like yogurt, at all. I have tried many of them, and just couldn't get on board. In the early weeks after surgery, I did have some Dannon Light and Fit Greek Strawberry when I was in the soft food stage, didn't enjoy it, but needed to have it.

Because I feel the need to expand my protein horizon right now, I looked at the Dannon Light and Fit Greek area today at the store and saw the Key Lime. hmmmm Well, I am eating it right now and it is so good! It doesn't have as much of that yogurt taste that I didn't like.

Just thought I would rec it!

Oh, that sounds great! My store only carries blueberry and strawberry.  going on a treasure hunt soon!

PS.  I like plain greek yogurt with a tablespoon of sugar free fruit preserves, and maybe a squirt of s.f. syrup.

My favorite flavors in the Dannon Light and Fit Greek are:  Cherry, Peach, Key Lime, Coconut, Vanilla.  Hubby liked the Blueberry. I didn't care for the Banana Cream, but he liked it. Hope you can find somewhere that gives you more flavors to choose from.

I like Greek yogurt, but even I don't care for the Dannon L&F strawberry flavor!  It just doesn't have enough strawberry flavor and what strawberry flavor it does have is very bland.  Like strawberries that didn't ripen fully.

I do, however, really like the vanilla, cherry, blueberry, key lime, banana cream (fairly new), and peach. The raspberry and coconut are ok for a change of pace, but I am not a particular fan of pineapple.  (I would eat it before the strawberry, though!)  

Anyway, I would encourage you to try the other flavors. Wih so much protein for so few calories, it is hard to beat as a healthy choice!

I've never been a fan of any of the flavors- but I've gotten in the habit of using the plain Greek, adding 3 Splenda, a drop or two of vanilla and then whatever fruit I like- really tasty!  Some times I will also sprinkle in some cinnamon and dip apple slices in it- very treat-like... My mouth is watering just thinking about it...

A large container (32 oz) of 0% Fat Fages or Oikos yoghurt

8 oz of frozen fruit (I like to use the Tropical mix for smoothies, with mango, strawberry, banana) Try peaches or strawberries or blueberries, too. I let the frozen fruit thaw before adding it to the yoghurt.  I like using canned mandarin oranges with bananas as well.

Sugar-free Torani Vanilla flavoring to your taste

Mix and enjoy.

The toasted coconut is really good, too.

If you do not like yogurt, its fine. many people don't like some dairy products. I would suggest you give a try to soy, my favorite almonds coconut or chia seeds. They are good alternatives to yogurt and in some ways, better than yogurt. However, consuming dairy good is recommended for a good health.

I've had the key lime it was great.  I love strawberry too.
