Yogurt recipes aren’t a thing for most people. Usually, the recipe is “buy a yogurt” and the directions are “open the yogurt and eat it.”
And that can be a beautiful thing when you need a quick healthy breakfast or some portable healthy snacks. The problem is that not everyone buys a plain Greek yogurt. They usually grab the ones that have fruit on the bottom or some sugary deliciousness in the side pocket or some processed crunchiness packaged on top.
