Greek Yogurt Protein Pudding (Print Version)

Blend Greek yogurt, cocoa, and protein powder for a super creamy snack. Change the sweetness or tweak thickness if you want.

# Ingredients:

→ Base

01 - 40 g chocolate, vanilla, or plain protein powder
02 - 250 g Greek yogurt, pick full-fat if you like it richer, or go low-fat

→ Creaminess and Sweetness

03 - Add 1–2 tablespoons of maple syrup or honey
04 - Grab 1–2 tablespoons nut butter—peanut or almond both work

→ Optional Enhancements

05 - 1 tablespoon chia seeds
06 - Splash of your favorite milk (oat, dairy, or almond), if needed
07 - 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
08 - 1 tablespoon cocoa powder
09 - Just a pinch of sea salt

# Steps:

01 - You can eat it right away, or stash it in the fridge, sealed tight, for up to three days. The taste and texture just keep getting better.
02 - If you want it thicker, gently stir chia seeds into your mix. Let it sit five minutes so it thickens up.
03 - Now it's time for a taste check. If it's not sweet enough for you, stir in more maple syrup or honey till it feels right.
04 - Give everything a good mix with a whisk or sturdy spoon. Too thick? Go slow and pour in milk bit by bit until it's creamy.
05 - Toss your Greek yogurt, protein powder, nut butter, and whatever extras you want (like vanilla or cocoa powder) into a mixing bowl first.

# Notes:

01 - Greek yogurt with all the fat makes things extra creamy, but if you want to keep it lighter, stick with low-fat.
02 - Want that chocolate flavor to pop? Don't forget to add both cocoa powder and a sprinkle of sea salt.
03 - Chia seeds aren't just for thickening—they'll give you more fiber, too.
