It can be hard to deny yourself snacks and desserts after metabolic and bariatric surgery, but what if you don’t have to?
Put aside the pint of Ben & Jerry’s and make your own chocolatey and indulgent protein-packed bariatric-friendly snacks!
This frozen yogurt recipe features Greek yogurt and chocolate whey protein powder meal replacement as the main ingredients to provide a low-calorie, low-fat, low-carb, and high-protein healthy snack. Bariatric patients will love it as a simple way to meet daily protein goals.*
You can enjoy this yummy recipe right after blending, or (if you have the patience) freeze it for that ice cream consistency you’re craving after weight loss surgery (WLS).
Tip: Mix in a spoonful of peanut butter or sprinkle some of the chocolate chips on top!
Ingredients
1 cup nonfat vanilla Greek yogurt
-
1 tbsp Bariatric Fusion Chocolate High Protein Meal Replacement
1 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
¼ cup sliced strawberries
½ tbsp dark chocolate chips
1 tsp olive oil
Directions
In a medium-sized bowl, mix the Greek yogurt, protein powder, and cocoa powder.
Add sliced strawberries on top of the yogurt.
In a small bowl, add dark chocolate chips and olive oil. Heat in microwave for 20 seconds or until melted.
Mix well, then pour the melted chocolate over the yogurt and berries.
Optional: Freeze for 15-30 minutes to mimic ice cream consistency.
Recipe Note
Portion size will vary after bariatric surgery based on food stage and tolerance. Consult with your bariatric healthcare team about appropriate food options based on your individual needs.
Our Bariatric Protein Powders are formulated specifically for ASMBS-endorsed procedures, including Sleeve Gastrectomy, Gastric Bypass, Lap Band, and Intra-Gastric Balloon. They can also be enjoyed by individuals who have not had metabolic and bariatric surgery and are a great way to get more high-quality protein in your diet.*
