Notes

Meal Prep Tips

Yogurt bowls can be made and stored in the refrigerator for 2-3 days.

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or use glass containers with tight-fitting lids. These are great to put into lunches or grab on the way to work.

Bananas and apples will brown if put on too early, so I recommend adding these fruits before you eat the yogurt bowls.

Other yogurt bowl ideas

Nut butter. 1-2 teaspoons of a drizzle of peanut butter or almond butter are delicious on top of a yogurt bowl.

Jams. Drizzle in strawberry, raspberry, or elderberry jam.

Raw nuts. Almonds, cashews, walnuts, peanuts, pecans, pistachios, or any raw nut add protein and crunch. You can also sprinkle pumpkin seeds on top.

Toasted coconut. Keep the sugars under control by using unsweetened coconut and toast it using a pan on the stovetop for a few minutes, frequently stirring, until brown and toasty.

Frozen or fresh fruit. Both taste delicious in yogurt bowls. If using frozen fruit, soften it up by heating it in the microwave for 30 seconds or so. Oranges, pineapple, mango, and pomegranate seeds are delicious.

Dried fruit. Stick with unsweetened to keep extra added sugars to a minimum. Cranberries, blueberries. raisins and dried cherries are delicious.

Cocao powder or nibs. For a decadent dessert-like yogurt bowl, sprinkle some cocoa nibs or stir in a tablespoon of cocoa powder. You could add chocolate chips but watch the sugar.

Natural sweeteners. Between the yogurt and other ingredients, adding extra sweeteners shouldn't be necessary. However, if you're using plain yogurt and want to control the sugar, a drizzle of honey or pure maple syrup will work.
