Healthy Breakfast/Lunch/Snack/Dessert

Are you looking for a quick, easy, healthy breakfast you can eat any time of the day?

You have to try this easy and delicious idea.
I have been making this a long time, but I have updated the ingredients and it is extra yummy. You will feel like you are eating a decadent dessert, I am NOT kidding. You have to use the brands I tell you to or it will not taste the same.


Fage is THE best yogurt out there. Trader Joe's carries it here in NY. If your grocer does not carry it, ask them to get it. YES, it is that good! It is super thick, and has that sweet milk taste, not the normal sour yogurt taste. The portion size is huge, and the calorie, protein and carb counts are all great!

Ok, so dish up your huge portion of plain Fage (whatever fat % you want they are all good), add a packet of Truvia, then top it with the berry mixture described below. Add some roasted almonds, any kind you like, I'll cut you some slack here....and enjoy.You will be amazed. You won't feel hungry like you do after eating normal yogurt either. The almonds and the higher protein in Fage will keep you happy for hours.

This is the same berry concoction I put on the waffles the other day, but you can put it on anything. You must use True Lemon, it totally makes the dish. The True Lemon combined with the yogurt make it taste like lemon custard. The best part is, no artificial anything! Soooo much better than the "light" yucky flavored yogurts out there.

Berry Mix
Serves 1

1 packet Truvia
1 packet True Lemon, Lime or Orange
Splash of water
4 sliced strawberries
4 blackberries
1/4 cup blueberries

Mix all together and let stand.

You can bring this to work in separate containers (Lock and Lock of course) so the nuts won't get soggy. You can also make more berry mix to last several days, bring the big container of yogurt and a bag of almonds and you'll have food for days at work.

Problem Solved!

    1. I saw a woman at Trader Joe's looking at the Fage and I convinced her to get it. We all know she will be back for more! :-)
