Ingredients

  • 200 g Greek yogurt (2% fat)
  • 40 g Granola
  • 100 g Mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries)
  • 1 tsp Honey
  • 1 tsp Chia seeds

Instructions

  1. 1
    Layer the yogurt

    Spoon half the Greek yogurt into a glass or bowl. Spread it evenly to create the first layer.

  2. 2
    Add granola and berries

    Sprinkle half the granola and half the berries over the yogurt. This creates the middle layer with contrasting textures.

  3. 3
    Repeat and top

    Add the remaining yogurt, then top with the rest of the granola and berries. Drizzle with honey and sprinkle chia seeds.

Notes

  • Use full-fat Greek yogurt for extra creaminess, or fat-free for fewer calories.
  • Frozen berries work well and are more affordable — thaw them overnight in the fridge.
  • Add a scoop of protein powder to the yogurt for 40g+ protein per serving.
