Ingredients

• 4 cups plain nonfat Greek yogurt
• 1 scoop (about 30 g) vanilla protein powder
• 1 cup granola low-sugar
• 1 1/2 cups fresh strawberries, sliced
• 1 cup blueberries
• 1/4 cup sliced almonds
• 2 tbsp honey
• 2 tbsp chia seeds

Instructions

1. 1In a large bowl stir the Greek yogurt with the vanilla protein powder until completely smooth and no dry powder remains.
2. 2Taste the yogurt base and swirl in honey if you want a touch of sweetness without overpowering the tang.
3. 3Set out four clear jars so the colorful layers stay visible and motivating all week.
4. 4Spoon a thick layer of the protein yogurt into the bottom of each jar, packing it gently so it sits flat.
5. 5Add a layer of sliced strawberries and blueberries, then sprinkle chia seeds over the fruit for extra texture and staying power.
6. 6Repeat with another yogurt layer, then top with granola and sliced almonds so the crunch stays on the surface until serving.
7. 7Seal the jars tightly and refrigerate up to four days; keep any extra granola in a separate small bag if you want maximum crunch at the last minute.
8. 8When ready to eat, simply open a jar, give the top a light stir if desired, and dig in cold.
9. 9For a warmer variation, microwave the jar without the granola lid for 20 seconds, then add the crunchy topping just before eating.
