# What You Need:
→ Dairy & Protein
01 - 1 cup Greek yogurt, plain or vanilla, 2% or 0%
02 - 1 scoop vanilla or unflavored whey protein powder, about 30 g
→ Fruit
03 - 1 cup fresh strawberries, finely diced

04 - 2 tbsp honey or maple syrup, optional, adjust to taste
05 - 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
06 - Pinch of fine sea salt
→ Coating
07 - 1/2 cup dark or white chocolate chips, optional, for dipping or drizzling
# How-To Steps:
01 - Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
02 - In a medium bowl, combine Greek yogurt, protein powder, honey or maple syrup if using, vanilla extract, and salt. Whisk until smooth and completely blended.
03 - Gently fold the diced strawberries into the yogurt mixture until evenly distributed.
04 - Using a small cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop 1-tablespoon mounds onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them slightly apart.
05 - Place the baking sheet in the freezer for at least 2 hours, or until the bites are completely firm to the touch.
06 - Melt chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 20-second intervals, stirring between each heating until smooth. Dip each frozen bite into chocolate or drizzle over the top. Return to the freezer for 10 minutes to set the coating.
07 - Transfer the bites to an airtight container and keep frozen. Allow to sit at room temperature for 2-3 minutes before eating for optimal texture.
# Expert Suggestions:
01 -
- Protein packed but tastes like dessert, so you will actually want to eat them
- Takes fifteen minutes of active time and keeps for weeks in the freezer
02 -
- Soggy strawberries happen if you use frozen fruit or cut them too big, so stick with fresh and keep dice small
- These melt fast at room temperature, so work quickly and return them to the freezer promptly
03 -
- A small cookie scoop creates uniform portions and saves your fingers from freezing
- The chocolate coating is best done in small batches since the bites start melting fast
