Ingredients
Units
For the Stovetop Jam (makes 4 servings):
- 2 cups frozen berries (choose your favorites like blueberries, raspberries, or mixed berries)
- 2 tablespoons water
- 2 tablespoons chia seeds
- Honey (optional, to taste)
For the Yogurt Bowl:
- 1 cup unsweetened Greek yogurt*
- A mix of chia, hemp, and flax seeds for topping
- Additional honey for drizzling (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the Stovetop Jam: In a saucepan, combine the frozen berries, water, and chia seeds. Heat the mixture over medium-high heat for about 10 to 15 minutes, stirring occasionally until the berries break down and the mixture thickens into a jam consistency. Taste and add honey if needed for additional sweetness. This keeps in the fridge, covered, for up to 5 days. Make enough for the week.
- Assemble the Yogurt Bowl: Spoon the yogurt into a serving bowl. Top the yogurt with a generous amount of the warm stovetop jam. Sprinkle a mix of chia, hemp, and flax seeds over the jam.
- Serve and Enjoy: Optionally, drizzle additional honey over the top for extra sweetness.
Notes
Use Greek or Icelandic yogurt for the highest protein (about 25g per cup).
Optionally, whisk protein powder into the yogurt to boost protein even more.
Sweeten lightly with honey, or skip it if your berries are sweet enough.
