Low Lactose and Dairy Delicious Recipes!
If you are lactose intolerant, we understand you may be a little hesitant to try recipes made with dairy. But halt that “dairy free recipe” Pinterest search!
Many dairy foods—including hard cheeses and yogurt with live and active cultures–are naturally low in lactose and typically don’t cause any uncomfortable symptoms. And lactose-fee milk is available in your dairy case! We’ve created several recipes using lactose-free or low lactose foods that can become part of your cooking routine.
Chocolate Strawberry Smoothie
Lift your morning smoothie out of its ho-hum doldrums by using frozen strawberries and a bit of chocolate syrup.
Overnight Oatmeal
Our version of this make-ahead favorite uses lactose-free milk. Go crazy with our variations, such as Double Berry and Apple Cinnamon Crunch.
Fresh Fruit with Creamy Lime Dip
This delicious dip is fast, flavorful and healthy. A little sugar and lime juice enliven Greek yogurt, making it the perfect dip for almost any kind of fresh fruit.
Apple and Cheddar Soup
The sweet flavors of fresh apples and apple juice are a great complement to the sharpness of aged cheddar cheese in this refreshingly different potato soup made with lactose-free milk.
Chipotle-Cheddar Sweet Potatoes
Another delicious use for naturally low-lactose cheddar cheese, combined with smoky chipotle peppers to make a sauce for sweet potato slices.
Pork Medallions with Apple-Yogurt Sauce
These tender medallions of pork are topped with a sauce that is both sweet from the apple slices and tangy from the yogurt. Spinach fettucine adds a nice contrast of color.
Vanilla Pudding
If you’ve never had homemade pudding before, you must try this sweet, creamy and rich dessert. Once you’ve tried it, prepared pudding will never be the same. For more indulgence, give the Chocolate, Coconut, Banana and Chocolate-Peanut Butter variations a try.
