Bariatric High-Protein Yogurt Breakfast Popsicles Recipe
These Bariatric High-Protein Yogurt Breakfast Popsicles turn a simple, portable popsicle into a thoughtfully balanced breakfast: creamy Greek yogurt, a protein boost from powder, fiber from chia, and bright fruit flavor. Low in net carbs and portion-controlled, they’re an ideal post-op or low-carb morning treat that feels like a little celebration in a stick.
Ingredients
- 2 cups 490 g plain nonfat Greek yogurt

- 2 tbsp 24 g chia seeds
- ½ cup 120 ml unsweetened almond milk
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- Low-carb sweetener to taste optional
Instructions
- Chill yogurt and almond milk briefly.
- Blend yogurt, protein powder, almond milk, vanilla, and sweetener until smooth.
- Stir in chia seeds; fold in half the berries for whole-fruit pockets (or pulse berries for swirls).

- Run molds under warm water 10–15 seconds to unmold; serve.
