Ways to Use Homemade Yogurt

Loving this home made yogurt (recipe in previous post)!

Tonight I am trying a first. Since I am out of the plain yogurt I bought to make the first few batches of homemade yogurt, I will be making a new batch of yogurt from itself. I cannot imagine why this should not work and I am hoping that it will. I am becoming used to have the homemade yogurt as a staple in my refrigerator.

So far my favorite ways to eat it as a snack are:

• Cut fresh strawberries, sprinkle a little sugar or honey on them (I use Sun Crystals, a stevia based sweetener), spoon some home made yogurt over the top with a little vanilla, mix and eat
•  Use any kind of summer berry or fruit as above.
• Mix a bit of orange extract and honey into home made yogurt.
• Mix a little chocolate syrup into a bowl of the home made yogurt.

The list is as endless as your imagination. I have also started substituting the home made yogurt  for sour cream. Today I made mashed potatoes and mashed them with a little butter and home made yogurt instead of milk or sour cream. They were excellent!

Tonight I am making baked fish with a sour cream/home made sauce on top. All the sauce is made of is home made yogurt, Parmesan cheese, butter, salt and pepper. Can't wait to let you all know how it was. Waiting to post the recipe until it passes my taste test as I grabbed the recipe off the "net" and lately it seems that there have been several recipes I have tried that were not so good. Not terrible but not something I would ever make again without tweaking the recipe.
