Macro Smash Deconstructed Yogurt Parfait

Recipe

Some nights, I just really, REALLY need something dessert like and sweet. Some variation of the below has been a savior to me on more than one evening – and it almost always allows me to meet my macronutrient targets.

Ingredients

  • 175g Fat Free Plain Greek Yogurt (I like Danone OiKOS Triple Zero)
  • 6g Sugar free, fat free Jello Pudding powder, flavor of choice (vanilla, cheesecake are best) or; ½ scoop whey protein powder of choice

Optional Toppings

  • Fruits & Berries (bananas are one of my favorites)
  • Nuts (walnuts, shredded almonds, pecans, etc)
  • Seeds (sunflower, chia, hemp hearts, pumpkin, etc)
  • Sugar Free Shredded coconut
  • Whole grain cereals
  • Granola
  • Melba toast (soaked in coffee first, is amazing!)
  • No sugar added chocolate chips
  • Just about anything else you can imagine that will fit your macros

Instructions

  • Whip together yogurt and Jello powder or protein powder, until smooth. Top with fruits and berries and other desired toppings to match macros.

Hints & Tips

  • If you are macro tracking, enter the ingredients you wish to use in MyFitnessPal (or other tracking software) and manipulate amounts to match your macros. Yogurt is high protein (and you can eat more or less, and manipulate even the amount of flavored powdered to match), nuts/seeds are high fat, and fruits are high carbohydrate. Berries are often both high carb and protein.
  • Flavoring your yogurt with vanilla jello powder is extremely diverse. Some of my favorite combinations are:
    • Pineapple, bananas, shredded coconut & walnuts
    • Bananas, strawberries, blueberries, almonds and/or granola
