I love how light this dessert is! It's not just low in carbs but also low in calories and high in protein. All without sacrificing flavor!
I used Fage 5% Greek yogurt which is very thick compared to other types and brands. In fact, it will work even with their 0% fat yogurt because it's just as thick and delicious!
Recipe Tips
This recipe is super simple. You just need yogurt, walnuts, sweetener, chocolate chips and collagen powder. The one I like most and use all the time is Perfect Keto. They have a variety of collagen powders with delicious flavors. If you want to give it a go, make sure to use my affiliate link to get 15% off!
This is how I make my Greek Yogurt slice but it's not the only way:
- Instead of walnuts you can use pecans, almonds or pistachios. Use toasted coco nut for nut-free.
- Instead of greek yogurt you can use coconut yogurt for dairy-free.
- Instead of collagen powder you can use or any other protein powder such as whey or egg white protein powder.
- Instead of 85% dark chocolate chips you can use 90% dark chocolate chips or sugar-free chocolate chips such as Lily's.
- Finally, you can use some berries! Simply add a few raspberries, blueberries, blackberries or some sliced strawberries.
Finally, here's a tip for slicing this frozen yogurt dessert. The larger the container, the better for slicing because the layer will be more spread out and thinner.
Here I used a small container and the yogurt was too thick to cut through which means that the slice may break and crumble. What you want is a thinner layer of yogurt as that will be easier to cut or break off.
