Recipe ideas?

Question

My boyfriend's aunt just brought up a bunch of large containers of yogurt. Problem is, most of them will expire in about 2 weeks, and there is no way that we're going to eat all of that. The two kinds she gave us were vanilla and honey...Does anyone know of anything that's good but simple that I could use these in? I really don't want them to go to waste...Thanks!

Go to Kraft Foods.com and enter yogurt as the ingredient. You will find tons of recipes that call for yogurt. Some may be as simple as dip and some are main dishes. Enjoy!

Answer 2

Yogurt cheese is nothing more complicated than well-drained plain yogurt. It has a creamy, silky texture, and a flavor similar to cream cheese, though slightly more tangy. It can be spread on bagels, used to make fresh herbed cheese, or sweetened with sugar or honey and eaten with fruit or figs for a wonderful desert.
2 quarts plain non-fat yogurt, or a mixture of non-fat and whole-milk yogurt.
Use plain yogurt that has no starch or gums added to it.
Line a colander with a triple thickness of damp cheese-cloth. Put the yogurt into it and stand the colander in a bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for about 18-20 hours. Drain the liquid from the bowl and discard it once or twice in the course of this process.
If you want an even thicker, denser cheese, pick up the 4 corners of the cheese-cloth, twist them together, then put a weight on top of the cheese and let it drain another few hours.
2 quarts of yogurt will yield about 2 1/2-3 cups of yogurt cheese, depending on how long you drain it.
