Ever get tired of just plain greek yogurt all of the time???..... Greek yogurt is amazing in many ways with its many health benefits and plenty of protein but sometimes it can just get old. I have taken the plain old yogurt and turned it into mini desserts for snacking or just an after dinner sweet. So next time you get a sweet tooth and are craving one of these many favorites that are usually sugar and fat laden try it the greek way!
