For a small variant, start with plain Greek yogurt, then add low-cal flavoring of choice (like vanilla extract, orange extract, lemon juice, etc) and a little sucralose to sweeten it up. IME, artificial sweeteners in small quantities taste fine. My problem with all the sour cream, cream cheese, butter and sugar options is that the empty calories can quickly explode, not unlike with salad dressings. @reallykindasorta@slrpnk.net permalink fedilink source parent
