I am going to be receiving 2 quarts of organic goat yogurt on Thursday.
- Thread starter dawn_mo
- Start date
tatziki, tatziki and more tatizki. Also yogurt mixed with a tad of brown sugar to top crisps or
fruit, i think the name is lassi. Also blended with ice and salt for a drink with spicy foods. I had this in Turkey with a offal sandwich and it was wonderful.
oh, and I could serve tatziki with a straw, but guess pita is a more polite choice?
enjoy!!!!!

REC: Mango Lassi
I've made this several times and it really is fabulous. I use fresh ground cardomom seeds, though, as the taste is just out-of-this-world! You'll only need about 1/2 tsp. of fresh crushed seed.

REC: Apple Streusel Coffee Cake
Apple Streusel Coffeecake
Woman’s Day Magazine, Oct 1995
STREUSEL:
1-1/4 cup light-brown sugar, packed
3/4 cup flour
1 stick (1/2 cup) cold butter, cut in small pieces
2 tsp. cinnamon
1 cup walnuts, coarsely chopped
CAKE:
3-1/4 cups flour
1-1/2 tsp. baking powder
3/4 tsp. baking soda
1-1/2 sticks (3/4 cup) butter or margarine, at room temperature
1-1/4 cups granulated sugar
3 large eggs
2 tsp. vanilla
1 container (16-oz.) plain low-fat yogurt
2 Granny Smith or Golden Delicious apples, peeled, cored and cut in 1/2” dice
Heat oven to 350 deg. Grease and flour a 14-cup nonstick bundt pan.
For streusel: In medium bowl, stir brown sugar, flour, butter and cinnamon with a fork or rub together with fingertips until crumbly and butter is completely incorporated. Stir in walnuts.
For cake: Mix flour, baking powder and baking soda in a small bowl. Beat butter and sugar in a large bowl until fluffy, about 2 minutes. Beat in eggs, one at a time, beating well after each one. Beat in vanilla and yogurt. With mixer on low speed, beat in flour mixture just until blended, scraping down bowl as necessary. Spoon 3 cups batter into pan, spreading evenly. Sprinkle with 1/4 cup of the streusel, the apples, then 1/2 cup streusel. Spoon on remaining batter and spread evenly. Sprinkle with rest of streusel, pressing down lightly so it sticks to batter. Bake for 50 to 60 minutes or until a pick inserted in cake comes out clean. Cool in pan on a wire rack for 15 minutes. Place a cookie sheet over the pan, then carefully invert to remove cake.
Can be served warm or cooled.

Our favorite new snack is frozen blueberries topped with sweetened yogurt....
How's the goat yogurt? Is it better suited to savory rather than sweet dishes?
If it's okay with the sweets, here's an idea. I went to an informal weight watchers meeting, and they served us a very lo-cal dessert.
They used frozen berries (I like just blueberries - they sell a big bag of frozen blues at Costco), sprinkled some splenda on it, then topped it off with a scoop of plain yogurt.
Mix it together, so the yogurt freezes around the berries. It's a very refreshing, creamy, almost dessert-like snack that came out to 1 point (I think).
I shared the "recipe" with the office, and now we're all hooked on it, even the ones who don't have to watch their weight.
We've been using the Activia Light vanilla yogurt, instead of the plain, and omitting the splenda.

I don't know, I have never had it before. My friend came into a bunch of it
and is sharing some with me. I am not fond of goat cheese, so I am hoping it has a regular yogurt taste to it. Tzatziki sounds great to me with some homemade naan. The lassi sounds delicious to me too. And if the yogurt doesn't taste good to me, I will definitely be using it in baking. Thanks all!

My daughters and I LOVE this and we've never made it.
I have a tub of Greek Yoghurt in the fridge, need to find a mango!
