Greek Yogurt-Based White Sauce

Low-Fat Greek Yogurt White Sauce is a creamy, tangy sauce made from strained Greek yogurt mixed with lemon and a bit of flour; it’s commonly used as a lighter alternative to béchamel or cream-based white sauces in Mediterranean and modern cuisines. It’s known for adding creaminess and a bright lemony note to pasta, roasted vegetables, fish, and salads. Nutritionally, this sauce is a protein-forward option, providing about 9.5g of protein per 100g, which helps it feel more filling than many cream-based sauces; it’s also low in total fat. It supplies small amounts of vitamins and minerals found in dairy, including iodine and vitamin B12. From a health perspective, it’s a sensible swap when you want the texture of a white sauce but with less fat and more usable protein; however it contains little fiber and should be used as part of an overall balanced meal that includes vegetables or whole grains.
