Dennon
Original Greek Nonfat Yogurt
What it is
This is a thick and creamy yogurt made from nonfat milk. It has a tangy flavor and a smooth texture. The yogurt is strained to remove most of the whey, resulting in a denser product. It is a versatile dairy item that can be enjoyed on its own or as an ingredient in various dishes. The nonfat aspect means it contains very little fat.
How people cook with it
People often use this yogurt as a base for breakfast bowls or as a healthier alternative in recipes.
- Breakfast bowls

You can eat it directly from the container. It is excellent topped with fruit, granola, or a drizzle of honey. It can also be used in place of sour cream or mayonnaise in dips and dressings. For savory applications, it works well as a marinade for meats, tenderizing them and adding a subtle tang.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to regular yogurt, Greek yogurt is thicker and has a more concentrated flavor due to the straining process. Nonfat Greek yogurt is similar to full-fat versions in texture but without the fat content, making it a lighter choice.

How to keep the rest
Keep the remaining yogurt refrigerated. Ensure the container is tightly sealed to maintain freshness and prevent it from absorbing odors from other foods in the refrigerator. It is best consumed before the date printed on the container.
