Our best yogurt recipes
Plain yogurt is an underappreciated ingredient. It's just as versatile as sour cream and it's great for you, too!
Yogurt is full of calcium, a good source of protein and has loads of healthy bacteria to keep your tummy happy.
Take another step towards a well-balanced diet by adding yogurt to some of your favourite meals. Here are some of our top yogurt recipes:

Yogurt-based dips
Tzatziki is a simple dip that goes well with Greek dishes. You can use drained full-fat or 2% yogurt, or homemade Drained Goat's Milk Yogurt (see recipe link at bottom of page) for an even more authentic and tangy flavour. Serve this dip with warmed pita or garlic bread or Deep-Fried Calamari.
Dried baby lima beans have a beautiful white colour and are very buttery, without the starchy texture that we associate with more mature beans. They make an excellent Middle Eastern–style dip that's a wonderful alternative to hummus. Serve with toasted whole grain pita bread.
Main course yogurt recipes
