I originally created this chia yogurt power bowl recipe while teaching yoga sculpt classes years ago. It quickly became my go-to breakfast due to its high protein and fiber content. It’s a great way to kickstart your day with a healthy and satisfying meal. Best of all, it only takes 5 minutes to prepare, making it perfect for those with busy schedules looking to incorporate more whole foods into their diet.
One happy reader, Kristin, shared, “This recipe is outstanding. I am enjoying my second bowl today! I am following a low carb high protein diet and this power bowl is perfect for breakfast or a healthy sweet snack. I topped my bowl with fresh berries, cinnamon, and some grain-free granola. I am happy to have found this recipe and your website. Thank you!”
This chia yogurt power bowl is a favorite meal prep option for us, alongside our overnight oats. Having this healthy, fiber-rich snack readily available throughout the week is a game changer. The consistency resembles chia seed pudding, but with a yogurt-like taste that we absolutely love. Plus, you can personalize it with your favorite toppings to make it uniquely yours.
To make this Chia Seed Yogurt Recipe, you’ll need non-fat plain Greek yogurt for extra protein and creaminess, chia seeds for their fiber and healthy fats, vanilla extract for a hint of flavor, milk (any kind works), and honey as a natural sweetener. To ensure the best results, use fresh chia seeds that soak up the milk properly and create a creamy yogurt bowl.
For customization, feel free to use your preferred type of milk and sweetener. Maple syrup or agave can be great alternatives to honey. As for toppings, the possibilities are endless. We like to add our favorite granola, blueberries, pecans, chia seeds, and lemon zest for a delicious combination. Drizzling almond butter or natural peanut butter on top can add a boost of healthy fats.
This Chia Greek Yogurt Bowl can be stored in single-serve airtight containers or glass jars in the fridge for up to 5 days. Pair it with a fruit salad, scrambled eggs, avocado baked eggs, or turkey fajita egg cups for a complete and satisfying meal.
