39. Gonna make a chicken tikka masala tonight

A big spoonful of plain Greek yogurt on top is delicious and adds lots of protein.

Same with on baked potatoes instead of sour cream, or replacing half the mayo for tuna sandwiches. Greek yogurt and cottage cheese, blended up, makes a kickass cheesecake substitute that's way healthier for you.

Even the sweetened varieties are ok in moderation if you treat them like desserts, replacing a bowl of ice cream. I like the Chobani Flips that have a crumbly topping.
