Sour Cream Substitute
I am absolutely addicted to baked potatoes, and have to have them with butter and sour cream. But I know those two toppings aren’t good for the waistline, so I’ve recently been substituting the usual sour cream with plain yogurt.
I’d heard about this yogurt trick for years, but honestly, it sounded so disgusting that I could never bring myself to try it. I finally bit the bullet a couple weeks ago, and am surprised by the results! The yogurt + potato combo isn’t so bad after all! Sure, it’s not exactly the same as sour cream, but there’s simply no comparison for the amount of fat and calories saved by using yogurt.
I’ll still have my sour cream topping every once in a while, but I think I’ll be substituting with plain yogurt for the most part!
