5-Ingredient High-Protein Dessert That Ruined Ice Cream for Me

Craving something sweet but still want to keep it low calorie? This creamy, protein-packed dessert crushes cravings without killing your calories — and it only takes a minute.

If your nightly ritual involves wrestling with your sweet tooth like it’s a demon on your shoulder whispering “just one spoon of ice cream,” let me introduce you to my secret weapon.

This 5-ingredient Greek yogurt dessert is cold, creamy, and packed with enough protein to make a bodybuilder nod in approval. Best part? It clocks in around 203 calories and packs 30 grams or protein— yes, really. That’s healthier than a protein bar and way more satisfying.

Here’s what’s in it:

170g nonfat Greek yogurt (thick enough to pass for cheesecake batter)
½ scoop vanilla ice cream flavored protein powder (don’t skip this — it’s the magic)
50g frozen mixed berries (for natural sweetness and a little drama)
5g organic honey
Mix it all up and boom — dessert is served.

It tastes like something you shouldn’t be eating. But you should. Because this little bowl of heaven doesn’t just quiet your cravings — it helps you hit your protein goals, stay full, and avoid the post-snack shame spiral that comes with raiding the pantry.

Perfect as a post-dinner treat, mid-day pick-me-up, or “I’m bored and just need to chew” moment. Plus, it’s basically idiot-proof. No cooking. No blending. Just stir, eat, feel superior.

If you’ve been looking for a low-calorie dessert that doesn’t taste like sadness and compromise, this one might ruin store-bought ice cream for you — and you’ll love it for that.

Tag it, share it, or save it for when the craving hits. Buen provecho!

Easy Overnight Oats Recipe for Teachers on the Go

Ingredients:

½ scoop chocolate protein powder (I use RAW brand from Sam’s Club but you could use whichever you prefer)
½ cup rolled oats (stay away from the instant stuff)
½ tsp ground cinnamon
1 Tbsp chia seeds
1 Tbsp PB Fit peanut butter powder (only 30 calories vs. 90 in regular peanut butter)
¾ cup almond milk (or any milk that works for you)

Instructions:

Grab your favorite glass container or mason jar (Ikea jars for the win).
Add your chocolate protein powder.
Pour in the rolled oats.
Sprinkle in the cinnamon.
Add the chia seeds—these thicken things up and bring in fiber and protein.
Mix in the PB Fit powder for that rich peanut butter taste without all the calories.
Pour in your almond milk and stir until combined.
Cover and refrigerate overnight (or for at least 4 hours).

By morning, you’ve got a grab-and-go meal-prep breakfast that’s creamy, satisfying, and just 316 calories with 23 grams of protein. Want to up the protein even more? Add a tablespoon of nonfat Greek yogurt. I usually skip it to stay within my calorie goal, but it’s a great option if you need that extra fuel.
