Spicy Yogurt Dip and Veggies

By Peggie

Ingredients

• 32 oz. fat-free plain yogurt
• Garlic powder
• Onion powder
• Seasoned salt
• Cut-up fresh veggies

Preparation

Step 1

Line a strainer with a coffee filter or white paper towel. Place the strainer over a bowl (this catches the liquid that will drain off the yogurt). Spoon in 32 oz. of fat-free plain yogurt in the filter-lined strainer. Cover and refrigerate for 8 hours or overnight. This process yields about 16 oz. of yogurt cheese. Season the cheese lightly with the seasonings suggested above, or add freshly chopped herbs such as parsley, rosemary or thyme. ½ cup of yogurt cheese = 1 probiotic serving. Use as dip for fresh vegetables.
