If you’re trying to eat clean, get enough protein, or just want a satisfying snack that doesn’t sabotage your calorie goals, this quick and easy Greek yogurt bowl is for you. The best part? You can get all the ingredients from Aldi for about $10.
Why This Yogurt Bowl Works
This recipe balances protein, fiber, and flavor with minimal effort and cost. It’s perfect for:
- Post-workout recovery
- A high-protein breakfast
- Midday cravings
- Clean eating on a budget
Ingredients (All from Aldi)
- Nonfat Greek Yogurt – Choose plain (90 calories) or strawberry (130 calories)
- Millville Oats & Honey Granola – Adds crunch, fiber, and extra protein
- Blueberries – For nutrients and natural sweetness
- Protein Powder – I use Muscle Milk (32g protein per scoop)
- A mixing bowl – Optional, unless you like messes
Step-by-Step Instructions
- Start with the base: Spoon a little Greek yogurt into the bottom of a bowl to help with mixing.
- Add protein powder: Use 1 scoop. If you’re using flavored powder (like strawberry), consider pairing it with plain yogurt to avoid flavor overload.
- Add more yogurt: About half the container is plenty, especially if you’re adding other ingredients.
- Mix it up: Stir until smooth. The texture ends up somewhere between Greek yogurt and cheesecake—thick and satisfying.
- Top it off: Sprinkle in about ¼ of the granola pack and a handful of blueberries.
Pro Tip
Too much strawberry flavoring from yogurt + protein powder can give you a headache (ask me how I know). Stick to plain yogurt if your powder is already flavored.
Final Cost
All ingredients combined came to $10.66 — and you’ll get multiple servings out of it. Healthy eating doesn’t have to be expensive.
