  Every morning it's plain yogurt mixed in a blender with The-Fruit-of-the-Day. I use about half a blender of ice also, as I like more watery smoothies and I need to boost my fluid intake. The smoothie, along with a carb of toast or rice cake, is a balanced meal.

  I like how Jaimie Oliver uses yogurt instead of other forms of dairy such as sour cream or heavy cream. I also love to layer yogurt and berries between pancakes for breakfast, or add yogurt to my salad dressings.

  I believe I'll also have to go with tzatziki: so versatile, so delicious!

• aurorak  on  June 2, 2015

  I think a well made, resplendently cultured yogurt can stand on its own; but, if embellishments are desired, then maybe swirl in some high quality Orange Blossom honey [that's been kept in a glass jar]; snip in some slivers of dried apricot or candied or preserved blood orange rind; & strew on top some chopped pistachios or butter-gilded pine nuts. Yay!

• rchesser  on  June 3, 2015

  I use my homemade yogurt to make yogurt cheese which is my favorite way to use yogurt.
