I'm not generally the type of person who eats the same thing every day, but one fun fact about me is that breakfast is not my friend. I don't like eggs (it's a texture thing!) and so I am always looking for new ways to have a filling, yummy breakfast that is also healthy and not super loaded up on carbohydrates. As much as I love waffles, french toast and cinnamon buns, that's not sustainable to be eating every morning and take way too long to prepare, so instead I've opted for healthy and nutritious yogurt bowls.
I know this isn't any super crazy recipe, and even though anyone can make a breakfast bowl with yogurt and fruit, I thought it would still be fun to share! I always use whole milk plain yogurt instead of Greek yogurt, and add texture by topping the yogurt with granola.
I like to put lots of fruits on top of my breakfast bowl and LOVE any type of berry in the summer. I used blackberries, raspberries and blueberries here, and then finished with a hefty drizzle of honey. One of my favorite things to do is put the blueberries in the freezer and it adds a nice cool touch on really hot days and also makes smoothies a little thicker.
Sometimes if I don't feel like eating my breakfast yogurt-bowl style, I will toss all the same ingredients (minus the granola) into a blender and turn my breakfast into a smoothie instead. I like using a few different types of fruits/ingredients to keep my smoothies interesting and maybe I'll do a longer post on my favorite smoothie recipes in the future!
I don't measure anything really but here is the general breakdown of this yogurt breakfast bowl:
+ 4-5 large spoonfuls of yogurt | I use a tablespoon and take pretty massive scoops, haha
+ granola to cover the entire surface of the yogurt bowl
+ handful of blackberries
+ handful of raspberries
+ handful of frozen blueberries | plus I always snack on them while I assemble the bowl
+ drizzle of honey
