Fruit & Yogurt Breakfast Protein Bowl

My daughter picked out my bowl this morning...fairy princess bowls make it taste better, right? Yeah, I think so too.

I had this today before my workout and it was just what I needed before a run & weight lifting class. Plus, it's quick and easy!

- 1/2 c plain fat-free Greek yogurt
- 1/2 scoop vanilla protein powder
- 1/3 c strawberries
- 1/4 c blueberries
- 1/4 c Fiber One Honey Squares

Mix yogurt and protein powder well, then add berries and top with cereal.

  1. I am curious about this protein powder that you add to a lot of your stuff? Where do you get it? And is the point that it will fuel you up and help you fill fuller longer (as I assume, but don't really know)?

    1. I use Six Star Whey Isolate Vanilla and Chocolate protein powder available at walmart. I use this one because each scoop has only 130 calories, 30g protein, .5g fat, and less that 1 carb. That is hard to beat. The flavor is pretty good considering most powders don't really taste that great. Also, its about $1/scoop serving. Some powders are very expensive, but this one is very reasonable.

      Yes, I use it to keep full longer but also to aid in muscle recovery after weight lifting (as a shake with almond milk) and give me the energy to make it through cardio workouts. You need to have complex carbs as well though, which is why I usually add fruit or oats to my breakfast and grains like quinoa and brown rice to lunch...dinner needs to be the same, like a protein and sweet potato. Add at least a cup of veggies to your lunch and dinner and you have had an awesome nutrition day! Hope that helps. Ask questions anytime!
