Greek Yogurt with Berries & Nuts (GLP-1 Friendly)

Serves: 1
Prep Time: 5 minutes

Ingredients:

• ¾ cup plain 2% or whole milk Greek yogurt (adds creaminess and satiety)

• ½ cup mixed berries (blueberries, raspberries, or strawberries — fresh or frozen)

• 1 tablespoon chopped walnuts or almonds (for crunch and healthy fats, I love walnuts)

• 1 teaspoon chia seeds (optional, for added fiber and omega-3s)

• ¼ teaspoon cinnamon (for flavor and blood sugar regulation)

• Optional: drizzle of monk fruit sweetener or 1 tsp raw honey if you prefer a touch of sweetness

Instructions:

1. In a small bowl, add the Greek yogurt.

2. Top with berries, nuts, and chia seeds.

3. Sprinkle with cinnamon.

4. Drizzle with a bit of sweetener or honey, if desired.

5. Stir gently or leave layered and enjoy!

Tips for GLP-1 Users:

• Eat slowly and focus on chewing well — this helps with digestion and fullness.

• Use frozen berries if fresh aren't available — they're just as nutritious.

• If you’re feeling extra sensitive to volume, cut the portion in half and save the rest for later.
