6 oz plain Greek yogurt *You can also use the 5.3 oz containers of plain or vanilla flavored yogurt
15 g whey protein your favorite brand/flavor
1 tsp ground flaxseed
2 tbsp powdered peanut butter optional, but really tasty and adds an additional protein boost
1/2 cup chopped fresh berries I used strawberries, but go with your favorite berries or fruit topping
Additional toppings: low-fat granola, nuts, nut butter (great melted in the microwave!), chia seeds, cacao nibs, coconut, etc.

Combine the yogurt, protein, peanut butter powder (if using), and flaxseed in a bowl by hand or use a mini food processor. Mix just until blended.
Chill for up to an hour before serving, or enjoy immediately.
Garnish with berries and toppings of choice.

Taste before adding sweetener. You may find the berries alone provide enough sweetness. If the yogurt isn’t sweet enough, blend in honey, maple syrup, stevia, or agave nectar for natural sweetness.

Prep ahead. You can prepare several portions of this protein yogurt recipe in advance and keep them in the fridge for a quick and convenient high-protein breakfast, snack, or dessert.

Consider using frozen berries. If you prefer a cold, refreshing yogurt bowl with an ice-cream-like consistency, try blending frozen berries into the Greek yogurt instead of fresh.
