Daiya Debuts Greek Yogurt Alternative

Daiya is expanding its line of plant-based offerings to include a Greek Yogurt Alternative. The Greek Yogurt Alternative boas eight-grams of protein and is available in four delicious flavors, including peach, strawberry, black cherry and blueberry. "Since hitting grocery shelves nearly six weeks ago, sales are significantly exceeding our expectations," says Michael Lynch, Daiya vice president of marketing. "This is a strong testament to the growing demand for plant-based options and also demonstrates we're meeting a real consumer need." Made from a signature blend featuring coconut and pea protein, the smooth and creamy Greek Yogurt Alternative is bursting with real fruit. Health-minded individuals or people on the go can enjoy it as a standalone meal or snack, or as a complement to a favorite recipe, from parfaits to smoothies, say company officials. "Daiya prides itself in offering better-for-you versions of the everyday foods people love to eat," adds Lynch. "Whenever we go into the test kitchen, our goal is to enable people to enjoy the wonderful experience of dairy without any compromise. This rich and creamy Greek Yogurt Alternative delivers the taste and texture of traditional yogurt, along with better nutrition that today's mindful consumers crave." With that in mind, Daiya offers a gluten-free Blueberry Pancake Recipe: Ingredients
