Greek Chickpeas And Spinich Recipes

My dip has all the flavor of the original, but it's much easier on the waistline. I prefer to eat this "dip" with a fork or raw vegetables.

Blueberries in greek yogurt, drizzled with honey. Delicious and refreshing.
My children ask for this one over ice cream!

Since we don't get frozen yoghurt in Holland, I made up my own with the use of frozen fruits. Lovely dessert or snack and very satisfying!

Dip strawberries (halved or whole) in vanilla yogurt (Greek might be best, because it's thicker), then putting on a sheet pan lined with parchment or wax paper and freezing. Voila: Yogurt-covered strawberries!
