Triple Berry Snack Jar Recipe
Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla)
- 1/4 cup granola (choose your favorite kind)
- 1/4 cup mixed berries (use a combination of strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries)
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional, for added sweetness)
- 1 teaspoon chia seeds (optional, for added texture and nutrition)
- Mason jar or any small, portable container
Instructions:
- Prepare the Ingredients: Wash the berries and pat them dry. If using large strawberries, slice them into smaller pieces.
- Layer the Ingredients:
- Start by adding a layer of Greek yogurt to the bottom of your jar.
- Add a layer of mixed berries on top of the yogurt.
- Sprinkle a layer of granola over the berries.
- If using chia seeds, sprinkle them over the granola.
- Drizzle with honey or maple syrup if you want some extra sweetness.
- Repeat the Layers: Depending on the size of your jar, you can repeat the layers until the jar is full. Typically, you might do two sets of layers.
- Finish with a Topping: End with a final layer of berries and a drizzle of honey or maple syrup on top.
- Seal and Chill: Seal the jar with a lid and refrigerate until you’re ready to eat. This snack can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 2-3 days.
- Enjoy: When you’re ready to enjoy your snack, simply open the jar and dig in!
Tips:
- Customizable: Feel free to swap the Greek yogurt for a dairy-free alternative if you prefer. You can also use different types of berries or add other fruits like banana slices or kiwi.
- Crunchy Granola: To keep the granola crunchy, you might want to pack it separately and add it right before eating.
- Nutritional Boost: Add a tablespoon of nuts or seeds for an extra nutritional boost.
Enjoy your healthy and delicious Triple Berry Snack Jar!
