*disclaimer- I did not measure a thing*
Oops, Forgive me!
Here's the truth... We have been so busy doing garden projects I have had no time to remake the dressing and figure out measurements. However I promised several people I would have it on the blog today so here we go...
Here's the facts on Sheep's Milk Yogurt
Sheep yogurt is a nutrient-dense, creamy dairy product offering higher protein, calcium, and essential vitamins (especially B12𝐵12) compared to cow's milk. It is generally easier to digest due to smaller fat globules and A2-type casein, making it a better choice for those with lactose sensitivity. Key health benefits include enhanced bone health, improved immunity, and higher nutrient absorption.
Health and Nutritional Benefits:
- Superior Nutritional Profile: Sheep milk contains significantly more zinc, magnesium, and calcium, as well as essential vitamins like A, D, and E compared to cow's milk. It is a rich source of B12𝐵12 for energy and brain health.
- High-Quality Protein: Contains roughly 60% more protein than cow or goat yogurt, aiding in satiety and muscle repair.
- Easier Digestion: The smaller fat globules and different protein structure (A2-type casein) mean many people with mild cow-dairy sensitivities find it less irritating to the stomach.
- Healthy Fats: Contains a higher concentration of medium-chain fatty acids (MCTs), which are easily metabolized and provide quick energy.
- Boosts Immunity & Gut Health: Rich in probiotic cultures that support a healthy microbiome.
- Anti-inflammatory Properties: Sheep's milk is known to reduce inflammation and may contribute to healthier skin, including reducing fine lines.
Due to its high fat content and thick, creamy texture, it provides a very satisfying, rich, and nutrient-dense, alternative to standard yogurt.

Other uses for Sheep milk yogurt
How I use it:
I like to use it to make creamy sauces and as an addition to my smoothies, but I do limit how often and how much because of the fat content. It's generally never more than 3-4 tablespoons.
When I eat it just as the yogurt it is I always add honey and fresh berries, occasionally topped with crunchy oats with almonds.
