I have a recipe for brownies that calls for Greek yogurt and haven't been able to find any. Anyone know what I can use for a substitute?

TIA,
Patty Len

Trader Joes and Whole Foods carries it, but you can use sour cream instead!

You can find it in the natural foods section of most grocery stores.. Fage is a popular brand. I eat it all the time.. but full fat sour cream would be a good sub like MacsMom suggested. icon_smile.gif

I will also drain regular/plain full fat yogurt in recipes that call for Greek yogurt.

This is what I've hear you do for greek yogurt, also. I've heard you drain it for a day or two through cheesecloth.
