- 1For an extra chilled treat, place your empty serving bowl in the freezer for 5-10 minutes before assembling the ingredients.
- 2If fresh cherries are not in season, use frozen pitted cherries; simply thaw them slightly before adding to the bowl.
- 3To boost the protein content even further, stir in a scoop of unflavored or vanilla protein powder into the yogurt until smooth before adding your toppings.
- 4To prepare ahead, portion the yogurt into individual containers and store the cherries and almonds separately. Assemble just before eating to maintain optimal texture.
