This year, I am working on incorporating at least one new “superfood” recipe into my menu for every week, in an effort to eat a wider variety of foods and lose weight. I'm not sure what it takes to be considered a superfood (since every list is different), but Greek yogurt counts at our house. Greek yogurt has twice the protein of regular yogurt and is lower in lactose. It has probiotic cultures, doesn't contain all the extra sugar, and still has the calcium, potassium, protein, zinc, and vitamins B6 & B12 that you find in most yogurts.

This looks like a much healthier version than the recipe I tried last year.

This smoothie recipe works great with Greek yogurt! I love the slight change in flavor. We made a variation with bagged frozen fruit & a small handful of spinach this morning.

Yum! I can't wait to try this one out. My husband loves potato salad & I cringe adding all that mayo to it. This is a MUCH better alternative.

Is there anything that isn't made better by a cupcake? Now I can actually eat one without visualizing my waistline expanding!

I have to order some of these mini bundt pans so I can try this recipe! These grapefruit & Greek yogurt cakes look positively delectable!

Isn't that color just gorgeous? I can't wait for my crop of beets this year to make this Greek yogurt beet tzatziki!

Thanks for including my Seven Layer Dip in your Round Up. No less than top billing. Woo Hoo! 🙂 You are correct, it is a pretty healthy recipe, too. I’m checking out the chicken salad, I don’t like mayo, miracle whip, etc. so I’m hoping this will give me a new option for chicken salad!
