Today for lunch my kids were going to eat taquitos when the $&*! hit the fan.  We were out of sour cream.  I was about to remind them that they are lucky to have food at all when I remembered I my sweet friend Rachel told me she used Greek Yogurt in place of sour cream. Brilliant. So instead of guilt tripping them I gave them each a dollop of yogurt.  At first they were skeptical but after trying it they asked for more.  Crisis solved.  But the best part of our lunch was that I discovered a quick and easy dressing.  Just mix  Greek yogurt and your favorite salsa together.  So maybe I didn’t “discover” this but it was new for me!  I used Trader’s Joe’s Red Authentico salsa but I think I’d really like to use a chipotle one next time.  It was actually very tasty and felt like an indulgence since it’s creamy.  Here’s an idea for a healthy, totally guilt free, and yummy salad.
