Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Low-fat plain yogurt
- 2 tablespoons Chia seeds
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Fresh berries (e.g., strawberries, blueberries)
- 5 leaves Mint leaves
Instructions
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the low-fat plain yogurt and chia seeds.
Add the honey and vanilla extract to the bowl, and stir well until the ingredients are fully integrated and the mixture is smooth.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and place it in the refrigerator to allow the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and thicken the mixture. Chill for at least 2 hours or overnight for best results.
Before serving, give the yogurt mixture a good stir to ensure the chia seeds are evenly distributed.
Divide the yogurt mixture into two serving bowls.
Top each bowl with half of the fresh berries, arranging them attractively.
Garnish with mint leaves for a fresh kick and serve immediately. Enjoy your nutritious and creamy yogurt dish!
