Good Gravy!
Whole Milk Greek Yogurt Mac n’ Cheese
Fat is back! Our customers asked for it, and we heard them. Introducing Clover Sonoma’s new line of organic Whole Milk Greek yogurts.
Crafted with fresh organic milk made by the beloved bovines on our family owned dairies in Northern California, this thick creamy Greek yogurt is strained in small batches, as tradition dictates, then blended with juicy, sun-ripened organic fruit for a rich taste that truly satisfies.
Available in convenient grab-and-go 5.3 ounce containers in five delicious flavors (plain, vanilla bean, blueberry, raspberry and honey), Clover Organic Whole Milk Greek Yogurt is low in sugar and high in protein, calcium and live cultures for the ultimate wholesome indulgence. It’s the perfect addition to your child’s school lunch box, or a healthy, filling snack for adults.
This versatile yogurt is also wonderful as a nutritious ingredient in your favorite family recipes. We love it in this creamy classic rendition of Mac n’ Cheese (and we bet you will too!)
