Protein Yogurt & Fruit Snack

This easy yogurt and fruit snack is packed with over 25g of protein, made with plain Greek yogurt, fresh or frozen fruit, and a drizzle of honey. It’s perfect as a post-workout recovery snack or light breakfast for gym girls, busy mornings, or anyone trying to hit protein goals without protein powder. No cooking required!

This little combo has been in my rotation since I started lifting, mostly because it takes less than 5 minutes to throw together, but also because it actually hits the spot. Creamy, sweet, refreshing, and with serious protein power to keep your muscles and energy up.

Bonus: it looks pretty in a glass jar and makes me feel like I have my life together.

Why This Snack Slaps:

• 25g+ protein per serving, depending on your yogurt
• No cooking, no cleanup stress
• Customizable AF—change the fruit or toppings based on your vibe
• Sweet enough to feel like a treat, but totally gym-girl-approved

What you’ll need for this snack bowl:

Plain Greek Yogurt– Plain is key here, so you’re not loading up on added sugars. I usually grab the big tub to save money and portion it out myself. Greek yogurt packs around 17–25g of protein per cup, depending on the brand. If you’re dairy-free, plain coconut or almond-based yogurts work too—just look for one with added protein if you’re using this as a recovery snack.

Fresh Fruit– You can go wild here. Berries, bananas, kiwi, chopped mango, grapes, or pomegranate seeds all hit. Frozen fruit works too—just let it thaw a little, and it turns into a natural syrup situation.

Honey– A little drizzle goes a long way. It balances the tang of the yogurt and makes the whole thing feel like a treat. If you’re cutting back on sugar, you can skip it. Add maple syrup, agave, or a date syrup drizzle if that’s more your style.

Optional Add-Ons:

• Chia seeds – for fiber, healthy fats, and a little crunch
• Granola – adds texture and turns this into more of a parfait vibe
• Nut butter drizzle – almond or peanut butter = game changer for satiety
• Cinnamon or pumpkin pie spice – especially good with banana or apple
• Hemp hearts or flaxseeds – extra omega-3s and protein

How to Make It:

1. Scoop your yogurt into a bowl or jar.
2. Top with fruit. I love frozen berries slightly thawed—they turn a little syrupy, and it’s like nature’s jam.
3. Drizzle honey on top and add any extras (chia seeds, hemp hearts, granola).
4. Give it a gentle swirl and enjoy.
