Ingredients
  

  • ¾ cup Greek Yogurt 0% Fat Vanilla Flavored
  • 1 tbsp Chia Seeds
  • 1 scoop Collagen Powder 10g (or other protein powder)
  • ½ cup Fresh Berries can use frozen or canned fruit too

Instructions
 

  • In a breakfast bowl stir the Greek yogurt, collagen powder, and chia seeds together until smooth.
  • Let the mixture sit briefly (5-15 minutes) so the chia seeds can soften.
  • Top with fresh raspberries and blueberries before serving.

Notes

  1. Eating chia seeds without soaking them is fine, but can be a little harder on some people's digestion. The longer they soak up moisture the easier they are to digest.
  2. I use collagen powder which provides 10g protein and is unflavored. If you don't need the extra 10g protein you can leave it out. You could also use your favorite protein powder, but I wouldn't go over 10g of powder or it might alter the texture/flavor too much.
 

FAQs

Is this Greek yogurt bowl good for weight loss? - If you have a strength building routine paired with this high protein breakfast, then yes, this yogurt bowl is good for weight loss. It's also good for weight loss if the macros fit in to your weight loss program. I find the calories to be on the low side, yet it is still a filling and satisfying breakfast.
Can I skip the collagen powder? - Yes, you can skip the collagen powder if you want. It does add 10g of protein though, so skipping it will decrease your overall protein. You can replace with another protein powder if you like.
What’s the best Greek yogurt for high protein? - The best is probably whatever brand is your favorite. Greek yogurt is naturally high in protein, but you will see some labels have more than others. Oikos Pro and Chobani High Protein are even higher in protein than the yogurt I used (Oikos 0% Fat, 30% less sugar Vanilla).
