here are a few fun facts about me…

  1. My most beloved décor item of all time is a beautiful green plant. My living room currently has more plants than I can count.

While Greek yogurt and regular yogurt are both fer While Greek yogurt and regular yogurt are both fermented dairy products, Greek yogurt differs from regular yogurt in it’s taste, texture, and protein content.

Greek yogurt is usually thicker and has a bit more of a tangier taste than regular yogurt. This taste and texture difference is due to Greek yogurt having the whey strained from it.

Due to the straining process of removing the whey, Greek yogurt is much more dense than regular yogurt, which is why it has a higher protein content.

Learn how to make your own homemade Greek yogurt, and know exactly what is in your food.
