Greek yogurt and berry bowl
A no-cook, high-protein breakfast that takes under two minutes to put together. Greek yogurt is rich in protein and calcium - a useful combination on busy or low-energy mornings.
Ingredients
- 150 g greek yogurt (full-fat or low-fat)
- handful berries (large, fresh or frozen (defrosted))
- 1 tbsp rolled oats or granola
- 1 tsp honey or maple syrup (optional)
- handful seeds or chopped nuts (small, optional)
Method
- 1Spoon the Greek yogurt into a bowl.
- 2Top with the berries, oats or granola, and any seeds or nuts.
- 3Drizzle with honey if you like a little sweetness.
Tip: Frozen berries work just as well as fresh - defrost overnight in the fridge or quickly in a bowl of cold water.
Levothyroxine timing: Greek yogurt is dairy-based and contains calcium, which can affect levothyroxine absorption if taken at the same time. Aim for a gap of at least 30 - 60 minutes after your tablet. See food and medication timing.
Calcium note: This is a calcium-rich meal - great for bone health. If you also take iron supplements, space them from calcium-rich foods by a couple of hours, as calcium can reduce iron absorption.
