I’ve been majorly obsessed with salads lately – a healthy vice, for sure ;). One of my absolute favorites is the Green Goddess Cobb Salad – it’s a low-carb salad that’s absolutely delicious! But it’s not always convenient to hit a drive-through for a salad and it’s definitely NOT an inexpensive lunch. So I decided to try making my own copycat green goddess dressing recipe using FAGE Total 5% Plain Greek yogurt to pack a little extra protein into the salad and I was shocked at how easy – and delicious – the recipe is!

I’m also sharing 2 other ways I love to add FAGE Total 5% Plain Greek yogurt to breakfast and dessert – it’s a fridge MVP because it’s the creamiest, best-tasting Greek yogurt I’ve ever tried, so it really works for any meal of the day.

I love FAGE Total 5% Plain Greek yogurt for myself and my kids – check out this little DIY yogurt bar for kids and my favorite savory yogurt bowls and easy fruit pairings with Greek yogurt.

Easy Berry Breakfast Smoothie

One of the easiest smoothies I make only has 4 ingredients and is ready in less than a minute! Just combine a handful of mixed frozen berries, a healthy splash of almond milk (or regular milk), a large scoop of FAGE Total 5% Plain Greek yogurt, and a dash of honey or agave nectar for added sweetness. Blend and pour and go!
