If you’re anything like me, there’s always a tub of Greek yogurt in the fridge. It’s the ingredient I reach for when I want something quick, a little healthier, and still delicious. Over time, I’ve discovered just how many ways it can shine, whether I’m whisking it into breakfast batters, folding it into desserts, or even kneading it into bread. That’s exactly what this collection is about: sweet and savory recipes that make Greek yogurt the star.

On the sweet side, you’ll find treats that feel indulgent yet balanced, cheesecake and mousse cake with a creamy tang, fudgy brownies, cookies, fluffy donuts, pancakes, and waffles that start the morning right. There are also lighter options like smoothies, clafoutis, and frozen desserts, all made better with that signature yogurt creaminess.

And then there’s the savory side, where Greek yogurt proves it’s more than a dessert staple. Think Turkish eggs with a velvety yogurt base, comforting yogurt polenta, no-yeast pizza, pillowy flatbreads, and rustic loaves of bread. It also transforms into irresistible dips and even a smooth tuna pâté.

This collection is all about simple, approachable ways to enjoy Greek yogurt, recipes you’ll want to make again and again.
