I'm looking for some yummy things to add to it. I do the basic fruit and granola, but I'm looking for something new! :) What do you do?

    I love LOVE honey and pistachios. YUM :) I also add cool whip and dried pudding powder (like cheesecake flavor) or jello powder (like cherry). Sounds weird but it's a cold, awesome, filling, amazing dessert. You might need stevia to make it even sweeter!

    I use either the sugar free fat free pudding mix or the frosting creations flavor packets + sweetener.
    The frosting creations are awesome! about 1/2 packet for 6-8 oz. of greek yogurt.
    I love the cinnamon roll to dip apple slices in or the strawberry shortcake *yum*

    I made applesauce with lots of cinnamon and add that. Also, just a little bit of lemon curd goes a long way! Plus I add trader joe's honey roasted sliced almonds.... so good!

    I add sugar free jam and sometimes add walnuts as well. My favorite is orange marmalade

    This week I just started adding a tablespoon of semi-sweet chocolate chips. Yum.

    I also make my own granola although Im starting to get bored with that recipe and might need to revise it soon.

    Make a truly indulgent looking (and tasting) dessert.

    Take a classic martini glass. Frost the rim by rubbing with lemon then dipping in caster sugar (it's decoration you don't have to chip it off and eat it!)

    Put a teaspoon of lemon curd in the bottom and smooth out

    Mix Greek yoghurt (i use Fage 0%fat) , the grated zest of lemon,
    a drizzle of honey and mix gently.

    Spoon yoghurt over the lemon curd.

    For lowest cals top with a few strands of lemon peel/zest

    For indulgence sprinkle with 25 grams of maple and pecan crunch breakfast cereal (i use Tesco's own)

    See my diary for Sunday 6th January for measures, calories etc comes in about 200 cals for a WOW factor dessert that is suitable for dinner guests. The fact it is healthy is our little secret.

    (with grateful thanks to my pudding chef - Php01 - for making delightful puddings that support our targets)

    I had ever thought to add pudding powder to Greek Yogurt. Just the regular Jello kind?

    Yes. The mix that you would usually mix with milk to make pudding.
    It makes the yogurt a little thicker. I like it best if I prep it ahead and it can set a bit before eating.

    I put all natural peanut butter in mine! 1 or 2 tablespoons. I love it, and it makes it like 25 grams of protein, which is awesome! Sometimes I will add some stevia for sweetness and maybe a little pumpkin pie spice!
