Yogurt bowls are great\u2014both the sweet and savory<\/a> kinds\u2014but there are so many more recipes with yogurt to know and love. This versatile dairy staple can bulk up a breakfast smoothie, anchor a marinade for lamb and other meats, form the base of classic dips like tzatziki, and transform ice pops into high-protein, healthy desserts\u2014adding tang, tenderness, and creaminess along the way. From weeknight dinners to no-bake sweets, yogurt does more heavy lifting in the kitchen than almost any other dairy product.<\/p>\n Below, you\u2019ll find recipes made with regular yogurt, labneh, and plain Greek yogurt<\/a> (we even crowned a winner in our Greek yogurt taste test<\/a>). Whether you\u2019re cooking dinner, baking, or figuring out how to use up an extra tub, these recipes cover it all. It\u2019s best to use the style called for, but Greek yogurt can be thinned with water<\/a> in a pinch, and plain yogurt can be strained<\/a> if you don’t have the thicker product on hand.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Photograph by Doaa Elkady, Food Styling by Pearl Jones, Prop Styling by G\u00f6zde Eker<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n In this recipe with yogurt, the dairy teams up with lime to flavor a whole chicken and keep it juicy while roasting. When all is said and done, don\u2019t forget to put a dollop of smoky poblano<\/a> and toasted pepita salsa on your plate.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n Photo by Emma Fishman, Food Styling by Pearl Jones<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n\n
