Yogurt

[kpoll19]

I am thinking of moving up to the dairy rung soon. Can anyone recommend a 5 carb count yogurt that is tasty as well? I kind of miss having yogurt occasionally.

Thanks,

Kelly

I buy plain Astro high fat (5.9%) yogourt which is 5.7g carbs for 125g. I measure 100g. When I first reached the dairy rung I would add just a touch of Splenda and maybe some vanilla and cinnamon. Now that I'm eating berries, I'll add a few tablespoons of blueberries or whatever berries I have on hand. Works for me!

I like the Blue Bunny brand (Carb Freedom) from Walmart. I like all the flavors.

Dannon has a "Carb Control" yogurt. It is smaller (4oz) and has only 3 grams of carbs per serving and tastes good.

Re: Yogurt

The carb control is extremely sweet, too sweet for me. I like to buy plain greek yogurt and add my own fruit.

Re: Yogurt

I buy Astro's Balkan Style Natural Yogurt. Its just over 5g per 125g serving, so I lower the serving size to about 100, which brings the carb count under 5g.

I had some of it this morning actually, with a dash of DaVinci's caramel syrup, a half ounce of almonds, and a tsp of unsweetened coconut. Yummy.

Re: Yogurt

You can also make a half gallon of low carb yogurt following 2Big's recipe for it. Use the Carb down milk and a couple of tablespoons of plain yogurt.

I heat the carb down milk until it's just "baby bottle warm". Then I stir in a couple tablespoons of plain yogurt with live active cultures. Then I put the milk into a cooler with a few hot water bottles over night. In the morning, I have plain yogurt. It's not as sour as regular yogurt and it's about 3 carbs for 8 ounces.

you can flavor it with a DaVinci syrup if you want. I prefer it plain and I add a teaspoon of chopped nuts or wheat bran.
