Time for this week’s Trim Healthy Mama food journal. I have fallen in love with Yogurt Power Bowls. They are so easy and delicious and feel so decadent. Here’s how I make mine:
Yogurt Power Bowls, THM “S”
- 1 cup 0% Greek yogurt
- 4-5 strawberries, sliced
- 1/2 tsp Super Sweet or equivalent
- 1/4 small 85% chocolate bar, chopped
- 1 T coconut flakes
- 2 T chopped nuts
First, I take the strawberries and drizzle the stevia on top, then microwave for about 30 seconds. This creates a juicy strawberry glaze. Then I layer all the other ingredients on the yogurt, top with the strawberries and stir just a little. The warmth of the strawberries melts the chocolate just a little and knocks the cold off the yogurt. It tastes a little like a chocolate-covered cherry to me. But totally on plan!
