⭐ Buttermilk (Best Fat-Free Option)
3/4 cup buttermilk per 1 cup Greek yogurt Quick tip: Buttermilk adds acidity and moisture but is thinner, so reduce quantity slightly to avoid excess liquid.
Buttermilk contains lactic acid which helps tenderize meat and adds a tangy flavor similar to Greek yogurt. However, it is more liquid, so using slightly less prevents the meat mixture from becoming too wet.
When substituting, reduce other liquids in the recipe accordingly and mix carefully to maintain the meatloaf’s structure.
The meatloaf will be moist with a mild tang, but the texture may be slightly less dense compared to using Greek yogurt.
