Ingredients

  • 200 g Greek yogurt
  • 1 scoop (30 g) Vanilla protein powder
  • 15 g Almonds (sliced)
  • 10 g Pumpkin seeds
  • ½ medium Banana
  • 1 tsp Honey

Instructions

1

Mix yogurt and protein

Stir the protein powder into the Greek yogurt until smooth. Add a splash of water if the mixture is too thick.

2

Add toppings

Slice the banana and arrange on top. Scatter almonds and pumpkin seeds over the bowl.

3

Finish

Drizzle with honey and serve immediately. For extra texture, add a sprinkle of granola or cacao nibs.

Recipe Notes & Tips

  • Mix the protein powder in slowly to avoid lumps — a fork works better than a spoon.
  • Freeze banana slices ahead of time for a cold, creamy texture.
  • Use casein protein powder for a thicker, pudding-like consistency.

Variations

  • Low-carb version: Reduce or swap the carb source for extra vegetables or cauliflower rice.
  • Higher protein: Add an extra serving of protein or a side of Greek yogurt.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • Overcooking: Watch the timing carefully — overcooked ingredients lose texture and nutrients.
  • Under-seasoning: Healthy food should still taste great. Don't skip the seasoning step.

How to Store

Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. Reheat gently in the microwave or on the stovetop.

What to Serve With This

  • Side salad: A fresh green salad with lemon vinaigrette adds volume and vitamins.
  • Water or herbal tea: Stay hydrated with a calorie-free beverage to complement this meal.
