I''m sorry but the orange Yoplait yogurt in this just made it taste creepy as heck. I know these contestants had to use Pillsbury owned products to qualify so that''s why I bet this contestant used it. I made it with sour cream instead of yogurt and it was not bad but very plain tasting. I made it with plain yogurt too and it was passable but barely, maybe if it had more spices it would have even been good. But making it with orange yogurt makes it taste just plain bad.
