Tip: Use a measuring cup and spoon for accuracy to meet nutrition targets. -
Combine yogurt and chia seeds.
In a medium bowl, add the Greek yogurt. Sprinkle the chia seeds evenly over the yogurt. Stir gently but thoroughly to distribute the chia seeds throughout the yogurt.
Tip: Stir well so the chia seeds don’t clump together. -
Add blueberries.
Top the yogurt and chia seed mixture with the fresh blueberries. You can either mix them in gently or leave them on top as a garnish, depending on your texture preference.
Tip: Adding blueberries last preserves their shape and freshness. -
Serve immediately.
Enjoy your Greek yogurt with chia seeds and blueberries right away for the best texture and flavor. If you prefer, you can let the mixture sit for 5-10 minutes to allow the chia seeds to soften slightly.
Tip: Allowing chia seeds to soak softens their crunch and thickens the yogurt.
Pro tips
- For extra sweetness without added sugar, add a drizzle of honey or a few slices of banana.
- If you want a creamier texture, stir the mixture and let it rest for 10 minutes before eating.
