Delicious food is one of my biggest weaknesses. I know, I know…everyone loves food. But after losing nearly 100 pounds in 9 months last year, I really have to keep myself in check when it comes to how I fuel my body.

As a busy mom of two little boys, my breakfasts have to be quick, since we are often on-the-go. I love having yogurt for breakfast, and sometimes I like to switch it up and make something a little more fun than having just plain ol’ yogurt out of a cup!

I recently whipped up a super delicious Mint Chocolate Chip smoothie for breakfast one morning! It was so good! Minty, creamy, cold, and best of all, quick to make!

To make the smoothie:

I first put 2 cups of ice into my handy little Ninja Express Chop food processor.

Then poured in 1 cup of unsweetened vanilla almond milk, and added in one container of Mint Chocolate Chip Müller® Ice Cream Inspired Yogurt and a handful mint leaves.

I blended it for about 30 seconds, and then enjoyed the heavenliness that was created! YUM! A perfectly minty way to start the day with a delish treat that is a great balance of taste and nutrition.

Another way that I like to have my “me time” (and eat it too!) is with a yogurt parfait. If I need a quick pick-me-up in the afternoon when the kids are napping, or at night when I’m craving a snack, I like to throw together a parfait.

My husband and I used to make yogurt parfaits almost on a daily basis when I was pregnant with the boys. We would create all sorts of different flavor variations using different toppings and yogurts. We still love to indulge in parfaits together while watching our favorite TV shows. It’s a great alternative to regular ice cream, without losing out on any of the flavor.

The best creations we have come up with most recently have been made with Müller® Ice Cream Inspired Yogurt. The flavors are so delicious!

To make the parfaits, we simply layer together Müller® Ice Cream Inspired Yogurt with different berries and some granola. I love the different textures and flavors melting together to come together into one really amazing treat!

Our favorite flavor combinations are:

Vanilla Bean Müller® Ice Cream Inspired Yogurt with strawberries, blueberries, and granola.

Raspberry Chocolate Chip Müller® Ice Cream Inspired Yogurt with fresh raspberries and granola.

You can easily set up an Parfait Bar that will really “WOW” your guests at your next party using Müller® Ice Cream Inspired Yogurt and simple mix-in ingredients! They’ll really enjoy having their own #MullerMoment when they dig into a delicious parfait.
