Notes

If you don't have a favorite vegan greek yogurt you can use one of our favorites like Daiya's Plain Greek Yogurt AlternativeKitehill Plain Greek Yogurt, and the not as thick but it still works and tastes good SoDelicious plain yogurt. And if your not vegan or dairy-free you can use regular plain greek yogurt.
