Last week I was chatting (way too early in the a.m. I may add!) on a bike next to my friend and neighbor when she said, “What should I have for breakfast? I am over my oatmeal and egg go-to. I think I am going back to Greek yogurt but I get bored of that fast, too.” She just about jumped off the bike to run upstairs for breakfast when she heard me rattle off a whole list of tasty ways to eat yogurt. These may not make you run, but hopefully they are helpful if you are in the same yogurt rut. Here are a few faves:

Coco-Yo

• ¾ cup nonfat Greek yogurt
• ½ Tbsp. coconut butter (Nutivia is my fave)
• Sprinkle of cinnamon

Mix!

PB, Berries & Yogurt

• ¾ cup nonfat Greek yogurt
• 1 Tbsp. natural peanut butter
• ½ cup fresh blueberries

Mix peanut butter into yogurt and top with berries

AM Green Tea Alternative

• 3/4 cup nonfat Greek yogurt
• 1 Tbsp. matcha powder

Mix!

Crunchy Pom Yogurt

• ¾ cup nonfat Greek yogurt
• 1 oz. 100% pomegranate juice
• 1 Tbsp. sunflower seeds

Mix!

Creamy Guac Breakfast

• ¾ cup nonfat Greek yogurt
• 2 Tbsp. guacamole
• 2 Ryvita or Fiber Rich crackers

Mix guac into yogurt and spread on crackers or use as dip for endive and celery sticks (veggies can be part of breakfast too!)
