My Snack of the Week: Greek Yogurt, Protein & Almond

Can you believe this weather?  I'm loving it!  But as the temp has risen, I've been craving something a little less heavy.  No need to fill up and cozy up this afternoon.

Recently I purchased some FAGE yogurt at Costco.  I almost never buy Greek yogurt anymore, as I suffered from a very severe addiction to sugary Greek yogurts (like Chobani) for about a year.  But FAGE is a safer brand, with only 9 grams of sugar in 1 cup.  I eat this yummy combo as a snack, but it can truly be eaten as a breakfast or dessert.





1/2 cup FAGE yogurt
1/2 scoop Jay Robb protein (chocolate flavor)
1 packet Stevia
1/4 cup sliced almonds

If you try it:
290 calories
30 g protein
5.5 g sugar
11 g carb

How does this match up to my last fav snack?  less cals, more protein, more sugar, equal carbs.

What do you like to mix into your yogurt?
