5 Reasons to eat more yogurt protein bowls
I’ve been obsessed lately with mixing different flavored protein powder into plain Greek Yogurt. I have so many reasons I’ve been eating this. Here are 5!
- It reveals instantly whether I’m going to like the taste of the protein powder or not. I don’t care for drinking protein shakes, because there are so many other (more filling ways) to include protein powder in your diet. Making a yogurt protein bowl is my favorite way with the right protein powder and yogurt combo!
- It’s a great way to reach your protein goals for the day. This bowl with 1/2 scoop of protein powder has 28 grams of protein. Perfect for when you get tired of chicken and eggs!
- It’s a terrific post workout meal. Nutrition recovery is essential . Combining the protein with the carbs in this yogurt bowl strikes a great balance to recover muscle and fatigue.
- It’s faster than a protein shake. No blender, no fuss!
- And finally, it feels like dessert! For real. I eat it for dessert.
While it’s really OK to just combine the protein powder with some Greek yogurt, I fancied this one up for the gram! I think it turned out perfect!
For this blueberry flavored yogurt protein bowl, I used:
- 2/3 cup Nonfat plain Greek Yogurt (170 grams)
- 1/2 scoop vanilla protein powder (I used this one from Walmart)
- 1 tablespoon sugar free cheesecake pudding mix (I don’t always use this, but if I have some, I’ll throw it in too!)
- 50 grams blueberries
- 1 tablespoon crushed Graham crackers
- Whipped cream! (optional)

I’ve got so many more yogurt protein bowls I’ll be adding over the next few months. It all started with this one, the Cookies and Cream protein dip! There are just so many more combinations worth sharing! This blueberry cheesecake one has been one of my favorites though, so I wanted to start with this!

Delicious! I can’t wait to try more recipes . Thank you!
Thanks Barbara!
I personally do not like vanilla protein powder so I was not a fan. That’s my own preference. My husband ate two servings though 🤣 Give stars from him!
Hi Laurie!
Thanks for the feedback. There are so many protein powders that are better than others. Have you tried UMP by Beverly Nutrition? For plain vanilla, this is my new favorite!
My family and I can’t get enough of this dessert. They ask for it every night and it’s great to be able to share your meal plan with them. The 1200 calorie recipe book has truly become a lifestyle and not a fad diet. Can’t thank you enough Amy for changing my relationship with food.
Oh my goodness! Thank you so much for saying this. I’m glad you enjoy the food and recipes!
