fage

if you haven't tried fage (pronounced fa-yeh) yet, let me be the first to tell you how wonderful it is.  it is greek strained yogurt.  i like to describe it as more like a european-style, dry, unsweetened yogurt.  it's high in protein, full of good probiotics and if you can find the 0% kind, it's fat free...not to mention that it's unbelievably creamy and delicious.  i use fage in many of the curry dishes that i make to tone down the spiciness or in any dish that needs a little creaminess, without adding cream.  another favorite way to eat it is in a fruit parfait for breakfast.  it's so filling, full of flavor, healthy, light and quick.  what more could you ask for in a breakfast dish?

fage

honey

granola

favorite fruit

add as much fage to your bowl as you will eat.  drizzle honey (about 2 Tbsp/1 cup, but you can always add more if you want it sweeter) over the fage and stir.  top with granola and your favorite fruit (my favs...strawberries, blueberries and raspberries.)  enjoy.
