3 ideas for cooking with yoghurt

Yoghurt has got to be one of my all-time favourite snacks.

It's versatile, easy to cook with and there are many reasons that make it a healthy snack and a great ingredient in cooking.

Whether you buy it plain, double scream or flavoured, it's a multi-use ingredient that adds an extra kick to your food. 

Below are some ways to use this versatile ingredient.
