Greek Yogurt Cheese Caramel Dip
Ingredients
Scale
- 17.6 oz tub of 0% plain greek yogurt
- 3–4 tablespoons of caramel (depending on how sweet you want it)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- pinch of salt
Instructions
- To make the yogurt cheese, place a strainer over a bowl. Lay cheese cloth or a flour sack towel in the strainer and dump all of the Greek Yogurt in it. Wrap the rest of the towel or cloth on top and place something heavy like a can of soup on top of that. Let sit in your refrigerator for at least 24 hours.
- Once yogurt cheese is done, dump in a bowl with caramel. Mix untill well combined. Add in vanilla and salt for extra flavor. Serve with apples!
Been straining my yogurt for almost 3 yrs to make thicker cheese for recipes. It makes terrific “ricotta” for lasagna and you can add Italian herbs to it to flavor it up. I add a packet of Knorr vegetable soup mix to drained yogurt cheese and make a terrific veggie dip.
I think the possibilities are endless.
I’ve added tiny diced pieces of red, yellow and green bell pepper and a dry pkt of Italian salad dressing mix (the kind you mix in a cruet with oil and vinegar). Very tasty.
