Portable Yogurt seems to be my prime goto during the week when I grow bored of breakfast in bar form. You can use pretty much anything for a container, but I prefer these yogurt cups. They come with a dome for storing cereal, or other kinds of toppings.
I’ve reached a point with my workday parfaits that I don’t need to even look at recipes, unless I’m looking for flavour inspiration. I almost always use oats with these things. One scoop per cup does the job.
Equal parts milk and yogurt come into play; sometimes I’ll also do straight yogurt, but I prefer it to be kinda like a smoothie bowl. In this case I’m using regular milk and honey sweetened greek yogurt, as greek style yogurt is DUMMY THICC on protein. Then of course comes flavouring my canvas. For the two parfaits I made I decided the base would be my matcha/monkfruit powder.
I like to use chia seeds whenever possible. They’re a great thickener if you want your breakfast to have a pudding like consistency, and have plenty of nutritional value. Plus they add a nice crunch.
Mixed in a different fruit into each one. The one on the left got the blueberry treatment, and for the other one I tried dragonfruit. I ate that one today, and I’m thinking if I go to use it again to add a second fruit like strawberry to it for added flavour. Dragonfruit is good for you, really high in fiber, but at least in frozen form it’s quite lacking in taste. I’ll be looking forward to some blueberries and matcha tomorrow, that particular set has become a regular staple and a good combo with matcha. Both green tea and blueberries are rich in antioxidants.
To top it off I added fruity granola for additional crunch. Eating one of these gives me enough energy to power me up until I go home for the day, and I like them because they’re easy to make ahead. This is probably my favourite breakfast lifehack.
