Oikos is an organic yogurt made by Stoneyfield Farms. It has no fat and only 80 calories per 5.3 oz. !! Who would no want to cook with it?
The first thing I created was a fruit dip. My girls love fruit and every type. I brought home blueberries, peaches, apples, bananas, plum, oranges and pineapple on Wed. from the farmers market. Because of this, I made a fruit dip. I figured the girls can dip their apples and pineapple into the dip. The second thing I made is a blueberry cake using Oikos and even an icing also using Oikos. It turned out better then I could ever imagined. Remember to strain it. The thicker the better. Enjoy the recipes and Oikos!!!

ReplyDeleteThat blueberry cake looks amazing! I keep reading about Oikos, I'll have to try it!
ReplyDeleteIsn't greek yogurt the best? Not only is it great on its own but it is so versatile and can be used in so many other dishes. I'm not a fan of mayo so I often use it in pasta salads or other recipes that call for mayo. This looks great!
ReplyDeleteLove, love, love Stonyfield yogurts! We also buy Yo Yo Baby by Stonyfield too and our 9-month-old EATS IT UP! Good stuff.
ReplyDeleteThe cake looks amazing! I recently tried Oikos for the first time (I used it for a yogurt-based potato salad) and it was a revelation. It's a bit pricey compared to regular yogurts but for certain recipes, it simply can't be beat!
