Say hello to your new favourite [healthy] sweet snack! I’m a big fan of Greek yogurt because it’s nutritious, high-protein, and super versatile! It makes a great base for healthy desserts.
It’s rich in important nutrients like protein and calcium, and adding a source of protein to our sweet snacks can help to slow the rise in our blood sugars, keeping levels stabilized and helping us feel fuller for longer. Regular yogurt also has protein in it, but Greek yogurt contains more.
When your sweet tooth strikes, this sweet and creamy indulgence is going to be your best friend. No joke. Whether it’s a midnight snack sesh or a midday treat, this bark is the perfect way to satisfy your sugar craving without all the guilt. Plus it’s so dang easy to make! The hardest part of this recipe is waiting for the yogurt bark to freeze up so you can eat it. 🙂
Frozen Yogurt Bark is a recipe ‘sensation’ that has been circulating the internet for some time now. If there’s one trend I can get behind, it’s this viral sweet treat. As soon as I saw this trend pop up, I had to make it. I mean, how cute is this?! Making this was truly a no-brainer.
Its a triple threat kinda treat: so easy, so delish, and so pretty. There is minimal ingredients involved. So ideal! I’d argue it can also be enjoyed as a snack, not just a dessert. Who’s with me?
Blueberries are packed with vitamin C and antioxidants, which are naturally detoxifying and a great way to support your digestive system. And of course, vitamin C can be helpful in boosting your immune system, but did you know it’s great for your skin and can also boost collagen production? Might have to categorize this one as a superfood sweet treat!
Berries, cashew butter and yogurt are a trio you must try. Perfect sweet and salty treat for parties, pot lucks, dessert platters or family gatherings. Or just an any time snack or healthy dessert option!
Cashew butter provides the best nut-buttery flavor and is a good source of healthy fats and protein and also contains essential vitamins and minerals, such as magnesium, potassium, and zinc.
To add a healthy crunch you could also top your bark with iron and magnesium-rich cacao nibs, crushed peanuts, plus some flaky sea salt. You can add whatever you like as mix ins or toppings to this recipe.
This is the most perfect little fruity, sweet frozen treat that tastes just as delicious as described on the internet. It is super easy to whip up and store in the freezer for a high protein healthy dessert or snack that will satisfy your sweet cravings.
Hope you enjoy this creamy, crunchy treat as much as I do!
