Greek Yogurt Gets a Makeover

There's something about Greek yogurt--the tanginess, I think--that just doesn't appeal to me. Oh, but it's like sour cream, you say? I don't like sour cream, either. And the thickness, let's not forget the thickness. It's like trying to eat a spoonful of peanut butter, it just coats and sticks to every surface in my mouth. I tried to jump on the Greek yogurt bandwagon about 10 months ago and just couldn't do it. More protein, less sodium and less sugar just weren't enough to get me to choke down 4-6 oz of it on a daily basis.

I like to think of myself as an open-minded person, so when I found a snack "recipe" on Self.com that adds half a packet of no sugar added hot chocolate mix and a packet of sweetener to a single serving of Greek yogurt, I figured I'd give it another shot.
