Breakfast bowl toppings

If you don’t like some of the toppings I used, but looking for more Greek yogurt breakfast bowl ideas, these options of add-ons might give you some ideas:

  • Fruits – pears, apples, persimmon, grapes.
  • Berries – strawberries, raspberries, blueberries.
  • Nuts – hazelnuts, walnuts, pecans, cashew nuts.
  • Seeds – pumpkin, sunflower, chia.
  • Liquid sweeteners – honey, maple syrup, agave syrup.
  • Other – granola of your choice (Dark Chocolate Granola is my favorite) or perhaps coconut flakes, peanut butter or chocolate chips.
Various Nuts for Greek Yogurt Breakfast Bowl

When I have some leftover Homemade Gingerbread Syrup on hand, I like to pour some of that over my Greek yogurt breakfast bowl. And while that might not be super healthy choice, if you only add a little, it’s perfectly fine.

If you are looking for more breakfast on the go recipes or need some healthy snacks for work that will keep you going until lunchtime, I have a few healthy breakfast recipes on the blog.

Breakfast Bowl with Pecans, Pears and Blueberries

My favorite ones are Apricot Mango Smoothie and Apple Pear Ginger Smoothie. Now, I don’t recommend taking these instead of a proper breakfast, but as an addition or “snack” they are a healthy drink alternative that are also packed with nutrients.

The perfect bite-size snacks are No Bake Energy Bites, Peanut Butter Banana Roll Ups (not only for kids!) or Fruity No Bake Energy Bars (these can be stored in the freezer and enjoyed only minutes after being taken out!).
