January is Perfect for a Fresh Start!
It’s January and while I don’t believe in resolutions, I do like to think of the month of January as the perfect time for fresh starts and new commitments (or just re-committing to old ones!)
For our family, hubby and I are recommitting to our healthy eating plan. We got a little crazy over the holidays, which is ok, but January is definitely the time to get back on track.
What that means for me is portion control, staying away from high carbohydrate items, remembering to take my vitamins and supplements, drinking plenty of water and maybe actually making it to the gym. (I’ve been 3 times already, whoo-hoo!)
Easy Yogurt Bowls for Breakfast or Snack
I wanted to share one of my favorite easy treats with you today: These Easy Yogurt Bowls are fantastic for breakfast, snacks and even desserts. (I have a lot of fruit on hand right now, so the kids had these for dessert last night and again for breakfast this morning- they love just about every combination of yogurt, fruit and fun add-ins.)
What makes this such a perfect little snack is the combination of yogurt plus fruit and nut add-ins combined make a delicious protein and fiber-packed snack! Thanks to Yoplait for partnering up with me on this post!
Yoplait® Yogurt makes a perfect base for yogurt bowls. The single-serve Greek 100 Vanilla is my very favorite. It’s the perfect size for snacking and the vanilla flavor is so versatile it’s great with almost any add-in you can think of.
I also like to use the Yoplait plain yogurt in smoothies and cooking, so I frequently buy the bulk size container of plain yogurt and then just add in my own vanilla and sweetener to make my own vanilla.
When I want a sweet treat without having to pull out the blender, I love my yogurt bowls. They are so easy to throw together and the add-in combinations are endless! (Sorry smoothie bowls, you’re too much hassle, lol.)
How to Make Yogurt Bowls
To make these amazing treats, you really only need 3 ingredients:
- Yogurt
- Fruit of choice
- Something for crunch (nuts, seeds, graham crackers, granola, etc.
To make the bowls, it’s as easy as a yogurt layer topped with fruit and a sprinkle of your crunchy add-in and voilà, a yogurt bowl!
Here are just a few of our favorite yogurt bowl combinations (printable idea card at the bottom of the post):
Strawberry “Shortcake” Yogurt Bowl:
Vanilla Yogurt, Sliced Strawberries, and crumbled graham crackers.
The Sunrise Special Yogurt Bowl:
If you are a grapefruit fan, you will love this one! Vanilla Yogurt, Grapefruit sections and (or oranges if you prefer) chopped nuts with a drizzle of honey.
Blueberry Crunch Yogurt Bowl:
A handful of blueberries and a sprinkle of your favorite granola makes this simple yogurt bowl shine.
Peanut Butter Banana Yogurt Bowl:
Sliced Bananas, crumbled graham crackers and a drizzle of warm peanut butter.
More Yogurt Bowl Ideas:
Raspberries Chocolate: Fresh raspberries, mini chocolate chips and maybe even a small drizzle of chocolate sauce…
Apple Pie: Chopped apples, crumbled graham crackers a sprinkle of cinnamon and maybe a drizzle of honey or caramel sauce.
Mixed Berry: Chopped strawberries, raspberries, and blueberries sprinkled with a bit of sugar.
Tropical Delight: chopped pineapple, bananas and mango, topped with shredded coconut
Tip: If you don’t want to use graham crackers you add crunch with chia or flax seeds.
