Healthy Benefits
All yogurts are excellent sources of calcium, potassium, protein, zinc, and vitamins B6 and B12. What distinguishes Greek yogurt is its thicker, creamier texture because the liquid whey is strained out. Also, it contains probiotic cultures and is lower in lactose and has twice the protein content of regular yogurts.

Shopping Tips
Fat-free feta cheese is sold in most supermarkets and Trader Joe’s.
You’ll find Chobani Greek yogurt in most supermarkets or use your favorite.
