Yogurt -- It's not just for breakfast



Go to the yogurt section of any supermarket these days and you'll be overwhelmed by the selections and the varieties.  You could spend a lifetime there comparing labels.   I've done my fair share of sampling different yogurts so I was thrilled to review this book Yogurt by Janet Fletcher and expand my knowledge even further.

Now I don't know if I'll ever make my own yogurt -- never say never -- but Fletcher shows you how.

Yogurt is often a healthier substitution for sour cream, so I welcomed the recipes she offers for breakfast, lunch and dinner.    Grilled zucchini with yogurt sauce sounds wonderful especially when I have some zucchini growing in the garden.  I can picture it with grilled eggplant too.  The radish tzatziki sounds like a great way to use up the radishes sitting in my crisper, looking a little lonely.   Grated beet and yogurt salad with beet greens is a wonderful way to use the entire vegetable -- waste not, want not.  For folks with a sweet tooth, there's plenty of options including a golden yogurt cake, greek yogurt sorbet, greek yogurt panna cotta.  This book is full of good ideas.  Delicious and simple.

I received this book from Blogging for Books in exchange for an honest review.
