- ½ cup protein powder (chocolate or vanilla recommended)
Optional Add-Ins
- 1 tablespoon cocoa powder (for extra chocolate flavor)
- Sweetener to taste (e.g., maple syrup, honey, or stevia)
- Milk (dairy or plant-based) to adjust consistency
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, add 1 cup of Greek yogurt and ½ cup of protein powder. If desired, include 1 tablespoon of cocoa powder for extra chocolate flavor. Add your preferred sweetener to taste. Stir these ingredients together thoroughly until fully combined.

Notes
- You can use any flavor of protein powder, but chocolate or vanilla are preferred for best taste.
- Adjust sweetness according to dietary preferences or omit sweetener for a low-sugar option.
- Using Greek yogurt adds creaminess and boosts protein content.
- This pudding is best served chilled but can be eaten immediately if time is short.
- For a vegan version, use plant-based yogurt and vegan protein powder.
