18 Jan High Protein Pomegranate and Clementine Yogurt Bowl

Working hard to eat a high protein breakfast? Me, too. This pomegranate and clementine yogurt bowl comes in at a whopping 20 grams of protein-not to mention tons of flavor. And, it’s GORGEOUS.

After 5 plus years of eating virtually the same exact thing for breakfast, I think I’ve found a new love.

I’d been thinking 2017 was the year to ramp up my breakfast game. (yes, seriously)  While my favorite breakfast was easy, nutritious and consisted of ingredients that were always on hand, I was getting bored. The minute your food bores you, it’s time to make a change.

My inspiration comes from this gorgeous photo by fellow blogger Diane Boyd over at Cape Fear Nutrition. Diane’s recipe for Winter Greek Yogurt Bowl got me excited—and far from bored. Why? We eat with our eyes first and these vibrant colors stopped me dead in my Facebook scrolling tracks.  What else?  (mostly) On-hand ingredients.  Full of nutrition.  20 plus grams of protein. And finally,  only one bowl and one spoon to wash.

This version consists of fruits that were on hand at the very second I was ready for breakfast. Leftover pomegranate seeds from kiddos breakfast, chilled clementines (I like my citrus cold) and just enough yogurt to make a cup after I scraped the sides down of the container. Sound like a typical morning at your house?
