We’re partnering with WomenHeart to bring awareness to their mission to improve the lives of women with or at risk for heart disease while fighting for equity in heart health. Did you know over 60 million women in the United States are living with heart disease? That’s 40% of all women in the US.

In honor of our partnership with WomenHeart, we’re sharing 3 of our favorite Greek yogurt swaps that couldn’t be any easier to incorporate into your diet!

Greek Yogurt Ranch Dip and Veggies
