With Canadian’s interest in healthy eating continuing to grow, the T. Marzetti®™ Company has introduced a new line of Greek Yogurt Veggie Dips.

Greek yogurt, also known as strained yogurt, yogurt cheese and labneh, has been produced in Greece for thousands of years. A much healthier alternative to regular yogurt, Greek yogurt contains at least two times the amount of protein than other yogurt types, half the sodium and nearly half the amount of carbohydrates.

• Cucumber Dill Feta - Flavours of crisp cucumber, finely chopped dill and crumbles of feta cheese create a refreshing taste experience
• Garden Herb Ranch – An array of herbs including rosemary, thyme, basil and marjoram adds a zesty twist to a classic dip
• Spinach Artichoke – A classic combination of spinach, artichoke and onion brings a flavorful twist to any snack

Each 2 tbsp. (31g) serving of Otria®™ Greek Yogurt Veggie Dips contain:

• Only 60 calories
• No MSG added
• 0 Trans Fat

A healthy dip for every day, serve Otria®™ Greek Yogurt Veggie Dips with:
