6th June, 2024
Our customers asked for it, and we listened! We are thrilled to have launched our new Honey Greek Style Yoghurt in 450g pots. A delicious combination of our authentically strained Greek Style yoghurt, blended with a dark, wild-flower honey and a hint of sugar. Whether you're in need of a quick breakfast on the go, a nutritious snack, or a delectable dessert, our Greek yoghurt with honey provides the perfect balance of flavour and nutrition.
The Health Benefits of Greek Yogurt and Honey
Greek yogurt offers numerous nutritional benefits, including a source of protein, probiotics, and essential nutrients like calcium and B12. However, the tangy flavour of plain Greek yoghurt may not be to everyone's liking. That's where honey steps in, serving as a natural sweetener and providing additional nutritional benefits to make it more enjoyable.
1. Source of Protein
Our Greek Style Yoghurt with Honey provides a natural source of protein making it an excellent choice for a pre or post workout snack. Protein is key for muscle growth and repair and helps keep you feeling fuller for longer.
2. Gut Health
The live cultures found in Greek yoghurt such as Lactobacillus bulgaricus and Streptococcus thermophilus support a healthy gut by promoting the growth of good bacteria.
3. Calcium and B12
Greek Style yoghurt contains calcium, which promotes bone health by keeping your bones dense and less prone to breaking. It is also an excellent source of vitamin B12, a nutrient that helps maintain healthy blood and nerve cells.
4. Antioxidant-Rich
Honey is packed with antioxidants which can help to combat stress and inflammation within the body. Research suggests that a spoonful of honey everyday can help with diabetes and cancer management alongside better heart health.
5. Antibacterial Properties
Honey's has natural antibacterial powers that actively contribute to the strengthening of your immune system.
What to add to our Honey Greek Style Yoghurt
Enhance your Greek yoghurt with these delicious and nutritious options to create a satisfying and healthy snack or meal.
Granola
Granola adds a delightful crunch and extra fibre to your Greek and honey yogurt. It typically contains oats, nuts, seeds, and dried fruits, providing a good mix of carbohydrates to fuel your day.
Traditional Greek Recipe - ‘Yiaourti me meli’
Combining Greek yoghurt, honey, and walnuts is a classic Greek recipe that dates back centuries. This traditional dish known as ‘Yiaourti me Meli’ is rich in proteins, healthy omega-3 fats, vitamins, lactobacteria and other nutrients. Yiaourti me Meli is generally served as a dessert after the main meals but this really can be enjoyed any time of the day.
Fruit
Enhance the delightful flavour of our new Honey Greek Style yoghurt by adding your favourite fruits. A combination of raspberries, blueberries, and bananas will not only complement the sweetness of the honey but also contribute to your daily fruit intake, making it a perfect meal option and helping you achieve one of your five a day.
Chia Seeds
Combining chia seeds with yoghurt creates a fantastic snack option. Chia seeds are packed with omega-3 fatty acids, which are known for their heart-healthy benefits, aiding in the fight against cardiovascular diseases. Whether enjoyed on their own with yoghurt or sprinkled over fruits, walnuts, and granola, chia seeds add a nutritious boost to your meal, making it a satisfying and wholesome choice.
Our Greek Style Yoghurt with Honey combines the best of both world; the rich, tangy taste of Greek yoghurt and the natural sweetness and health benefits of honey.
