Why You’ll Love This Jello Yogurt Bowl
- The best new quick and easy snack to add to your rotation
- You only need 4 simple ingredients.
- No oven, fridge or freezer time is required. Although, it is awesome if you put it in the freezer for 15 minutes before eating.
- It’s delicious, creamy, and flavorful.
- Packed with protein and ZERO fat if you use nonfat Greek yogurt. Which means more room for fun toppings!
- This snack is super customizable for flavor and nutritional needs. Want to switch up the flavor? Use a different jell-O and gelatin flavors OR different toppings! Need more or less protein? Add more or less yogurt.
Ingredients and Substitutions
- Greek yogurt – Any kind will work. Full-fat, low-fat, non-fat. You can use a flavored one or you can just use plain since the Jello pudding mix you choose will add flavor. My two favorite yogurt brands are fa*ge and Two Good because of their flavor and quality.
- Sugar-free Jell-O pudding mix – Literally ANY flavor will work! I stick to the sugar-free flavors because I honestly can’t taste the difference. And the sugar-free has fewer calories.
- Sweetener – You can also use any kind you want. I will usually use a pack of Splenda or liquid stevia like this one or this one.
- Jell-O Sugar-Free Ready-to-Eat gelatin -You can make the gelatin yourself if you prefer but the packs make it so much easier. Strawberry is my favorite flavor!
How To Make
The full printable recipe is below, but let me walk you through the process so you know what to expect when you’re making it!
1. In a bowl, add Greek yogurt, sugar-free Jell-O pudding mix, and stevia. Mix until combined.
2. Add in the two packets of strawberry Jell-O gelatin, breaking the gelatin as you go.
3. Chop it with your spoon to try to get it as small as possible and mix well with yogurt. Then, pop in the freezer for 15 minutes! Not necessary, but REALLY makes it tastes best in my opinion!
4. Add favorite toppings and enjoy!
Favorite Jello Yogurt Bowl Topping Ideas
There are SO MANY topping options for this Jello Yogurt Bowl! Literally, endless. And you can switch them up based on your mood or what you have on hand.
- Nut Butter – My favorite nut butters are American Dream Nut Butters. They are creamy, slightly more macro-friendly than traditional nut butters, and have just the right amount of sweetness + goodies mixed in! You can use code ‘LaurenFitFoodie’ to save 10% off your purchase.
- Black Cocoa Powder – When you mix Black Cocoa into your Jello Yogurt Bowl, you get a flavor similar to Cookies and Cream!
- Peanut Butter Powder – You can use this to cut down on fat. Tastes just like peanut butter! My favorite is by PBFit.
- Desserts – I LOVE topping my Jello Yogurt Bowl with some of my other favorite healthy treats. Try my No-Bake Oreo Protein Balls, Churro Protein Cheesecake Bars, or Chocolate Peanut Butter Crunch Bars!
- Fruit – you can’t go wrong with the natural sweetness from fruit! Strawberries, blueberries, whatever you’re in the mood for!
- Cool Whip – what a treat a dollop of cool whip slightly mixed in does. More creaminess for the win 👏🏼
- Cereal – The creaminess of the yogurt and the crunch of the cereal is just too good. There are so many great cereal options, but my favorites have to be Oreo O’s, Fruity Pebbles, and Lucky Charms.
- Puffed Rice – This Puffed Rice has a crunch like cereal but packs more volume. Sometimes I’ll even mix them together.
- Cookies – Like cereal, cookies also bring so much deliciousness to these bowls! Oreo’s, graham crackers, Teddy grahams – you can’t go wrong here.
- Candy – did someway say more chocolate?! M&m’s, Kit Kat’s, Reese’s cups, Butterfinger, Crunch bar! The super sweet delicious chocolate candy really makes this creamy yogurt bowl POP!
