Description

This Cheesecake Yogurt Bowl is a quick and delicious breakfast or snack option that combines the tangy creaminess of vanilla yogurt and cottage cheese with the sweet burst of frozen cherries. Topped with high-protein chocolate cereal, low-sugar chocolate chips, and a drizzle of almond butter, it offers a perfect balance of flavors and textures reminiscent of a cheesecake dessert, while keeping it wholesome and nutritious.


Ingredients

Fruit

  • 1 cup frozen pitted cherries, chopped

Dairy

  • 1 (5.3 oz) container low sugar vanilla yogurt (Siggi’s recommended)
  • ¼ cup full fat or low fat cottage cheese (Good Culture recommended)
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract

Toppings

  • ½ cup chocolate Catalina Crunch cereal (or other high protein cereal)
  • ½ tablespoon low sugar chocolate chips (Lily’s recommended)
  • Drizzle of almond butter


Instructions

  1. Combine the base ingredients. In a bowl, add the chopped frozen cherries followed by the vanilla yogurt, cottage cheese, and vanilla extract. Mix gently to combine all ingredients evenly.
  2. Chill for optimal flavor. Place the bowl in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to allow the frozen cherries to thaw slightly, which will improve the texture and meld the flavors.
  3. Top with crunchy and sweet elements. Once chilled, top the mixture with the chocolate Catalina Crunch cereal, low sugar chocolate chips, and a drizzle of almond butter.
  4. Serve and enjoy. Stir slightly to combine the toppings with the yogurt base, then enjoy your nutritious and indulgent cheesecake yogurt bowl immediately.

Notes

  • Using frozen cherries adds a nice chilled texture, but fresh cherries can be used if preferred.
  • Adjust the amount of almond butter based on your taste preference and calorie needs.
  • For a dairy-free version, substitute yogurt and cottage cheese with plant-based alternatives.
  • This bowl is best enjoyed fresh but can be stored covered in the fridge for up to 12 hours.
  • Low sugar and high protein ingredients make this bowl suitable for those watching sugar intake and looking to increase protein.
