Plain Greek yogurt is a pantry (well fridge) staple at my house.

Instead of buying different flavored yogurts, one tub can be enjoyed in many healthy breakfast recipes, like this yogurt with peanut butter and even substitute sour cream in recipes.

This easy peanut butter Greek yogurt recipe can be enjoyed for a meal or snack. It can be served as a yogurt bowl or dip with fruits and graham crackers to dip into.

It's based on one of the snacks served at a hospital I worked at, everyone loved it, and it's so easy. Enjoy.

Make some peanut butter yogurt dip Instead of topping your yogurt with granola and fruit. Prepare some apple slices, banana slices, graham crackers, etc to dip into your yogurt dip.

Storage Tips

Store leftover peanut butter yogurt dip (without toppings) in an airtight container in the fridge for about a week. It should be good to use right out of the fridge, you may want to stir it if yogurt has separated.
