Ingredients
  

For the Pudding
  • cups vanilla Greek yogurt Provides rich creaminess and a healthy dose of protein; a higher protein plant-based yogurt can be used for a dairy-free option.
  • 2 tablespoons instant vanilla pudding mix Thickens the mixture and infuses more vanilla flavor; for best results, avoid substitutions.
  • 1-2 scoops vanilla protein powder Boosts the pudding’s protein content; choose a flavor you enjoy, or opt for unflavored.
  • ¼ cup water or milk Adjusts consistency; using milk enhances creaminess.
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract Intensifies the vanilla flavor; optional if you prefer milder notes.
Optional Toppings
  • 1 cup frozen mixed berries Thawed
  • 1 cup whipped cream Elevates the dessert experience.
  • ½ cup chopped nuts Almonds or walnuts.
  • ¼ cup mini chocolate chips Provide just a sprinkle to keep it nutritious.
