blueberries | A Pinch of Luv

Breakfast is my favorite meal of the day. Maybe because a large… Wait very large cup of coffee goes with it! No really all jokes aside I love breakfast foods and it is the most important meal of the day to get your motor running.

One of my standard go-to breakfast meals is anything with Greek NonFat Plain Yogurt. The possibilities are endless with this basic standard staple.

Serving Size One!

Ingredients :

One cup of Greek plain fat-free yogurt

1 tablespoon of vanilla protein powder (look for the type with about 100 cal per one scoop)

1/2 packet of truvia or stevia in the raw

1/2 tablespoon of Chia seeds

1 Tsp of Vietnamese ground cinnamon

1/2 tablespoon of slivered almonds

1 cup of frozen blueberries

Directions:

1. Thoroughly mix the first four ingredients together in a 2 pint mason jar.

2. Top with frozen blueberries & sprinkle with slivered almonds. Place the mason jar lid and seal on the glass, close tightly and place in refrigerator overnight.

3. Remove the mason jar from the refrigerator in the morning and give your yogurt a good stir to marry all the juices.

Enjoy!
