Every New Year, we vow to eat healthier and start the year off on the right foot. I often find this is such a daunting task. This means planning three healthy meals a day...21 meals a week! This year, in an effort to stick to my New Year's Resolution, I am taking small steps toward my goal.

Small steps starting with breakfast. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. It kick-starts your brain and keeps you energized all morning. These 5 easy yogurt recipes can help you jump-start your healthy breakfast habit too!

If you love breakfast as much as we do, here are some wonderful gluten free breakfast ideas to try.

FAGE Total 0% Plain Greek Yogurt is an all-natural Greek Yogurt that is not only protein-rich but also so thick and creamy it tastes like a dessert!

You will find that FAGE Total 0% Plain Greek Yogurt is the perfect base for these yogurt breakfast bowl ideas. You may remember an earlier post I created about our love of FAGE Total Greek Yogurt.

FAGE is Non-GMO Project Verified, is made with only milk and live active yogurt cultures, and has no added sugar. You can feel good feeding your family their yogurt.

*Don't forget to check out the homemade Berry Compote recipe further down for a delicious low-sugar way to add zing to your Greek yogurt breakfast.

If you have been wondering what to eat with yogurt, here are 5 delicious ideas to get you started:

Cinnamon Apple Granola Yogurt Bowls

Let's talk about granola yogurt toppers. For this recipe, I used this homemade cinnamon granola. It is loaded with good things like gluten free rolled oats, seeds, nuts, cinnamon, and maple syrup. You may also love this easy Gluten Free Muesli for breakfast. Real food that goes beautifully on top of this creamy yogurt.

Pair this cinnamon granola with freshly chopped apples for a cinnamon apple treat! FAGE Total Plain Greek Yogurt is the perfect pairing with the cinnamon and apple flavors!

To make this cinnamon apple breakfast bowl, you need the following:

  • 1 cup FAGE Total 0% Plain Greek Yogurt
  • 1 apple, chopped
  • ¼ cup granola
  • ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
  • Optional chopped pecans

Place the FAGE Total Greek Yogurt in a breakfast bowl. In a smaller bowl, add chopped apple, nuts, and cinnamon. Toss to coat the apples. Pour the granola and apple mixture onto the yogurt, and enjoy!

drizzling honey over a muesli topped yogurt bowl

Honey and Muesli Yogurt Bowls

Muesli has become one of my favorite easy breakfasts. Muesli is easy to make, and it adds just the right crunch to FAGE Total Greek Yogurt. Drizzle honey on top for a healthy breakfast your kids will want to devour!

Here is an easy homemade muesli recipe:

  • 1 cup certified gluten free rolled oats
  • ¼ cup of your favorite chopped nuts
  • ¼ cup of raisins or another dried fruit
  • ¼ cup seeds like sunflower and pumpkin

To Make A Honey Muesli Yogurt Bowl, You Need:

  • 1 cup FAGE Total 0% Plain Greek Yogurt
  • ⅓ cup muesli
  • 1 tablespoon honey

Add your yogurt to a bowl and top with muesli. Drizzle honey on top and you are ready for a healthy breakfast!

pineapple, macadamia and coconut tropical yogurt bowls

Tropical Greek Yogurt Bowls

This tasty breakfast bowl will take you back to the tropics :-). Creamy FAGE Total Plain Yogurt combines pineapple, coconut, and macadamia nuts for a healthy breakfast you can easily mistake for dessert!

Once you try this tropical breakfast recipe, you will never wonder what to put in yogurt again.

To make this tropical Greek yogurt bowl, you need the following:

  • 1 cup FAGE Total 0% Plain Greek Yogurt
  • ⅓ cup chopped fresh pineapple
  • ¼ cup unsweetened shredded coconut
  • 2 tablespoons chopped macadamia nuts

Add FAGE Total Greek Yogurt to a bowl and top with the pineapple, coconut, and macadamia nuts. If you need your breakfast bowl to be nut-free, substitute the macadamia nuts with sunflower seeds, or omit them.

Peanut Butter Banana Yogurt Bowls

This recipe is dedicated to Mr. Fearless Dining, who will do anything for peanut butter! This is a man who can eat peanut butter for breakfast every day and never get bored of it :-).

To Make a Peanut Butter Banana Yogurt bowl, You Need:

  • 1 cup FAGE Total 0% Plain Greek Yogurt
  • 1 banana sliced
  • ¼ cup melted peanut butter
drizzling peanut butter over bananas and yogurt

* TIP: I like to microwave the peanut butter for 30 seconds so that it is warm enough to drizzle!

mixed berry compote over plain yogurt

Get ready for an explosion of fresh berry flavors. Raspberries and blackberries seem to be made for yogurt, and with this homemade berry compote, FAGE Total Plain Greek Yogurt is hard to resist! Keep reading to see how easy this mixed berry compote is to make!
