Strawberry Greek Nonfat Yogurt
What it is
This is a thick, creamy yogurt made from strained nonfat milk, infused with the sweet flavor of strawberries. The straining process removes much of the whey, resulting in a denser texture and a more concentrated taste compared to regular yogurt. It is a fermented dairy product, meaning it contains live and active cultures.
