The Strawberry Banana Glow Bowl

The Base:

1 cup Thick Greek Yogurt (Plain or Vanilla)
2 tbsp Strawberry puree or high-quality strawberry jam (for the pink swirl)
Optional: 1 scoop of vanilla protein powder (to achieve that extra thick, matte texture)

The Toppings:

6-8 Fresh Strawberries: Keep 3 whole (with stems for aesthetics) and slice the rest vertically.
1 Medium Banana: Sliced into even rounds.
Optional Crunch: Chia seeds, hemp hearts, or a sprinkle of granola.

Prep the Base: In a small mixing bowl, add your Greek yogurt. If you want it extra fluffy, whisk it vigorously for 30 seconds with a spoon.
Create the Pink Hue: Fold in the strawberry puree or jam. If you want a “marble” look, only stir it a few times. For the solid pink look in the photo, mix until the color is consistent.
The Bowl Pour: Spoon the yogurt into a shallow ceramic bowl. Use the back of your spoon to create “swooshes” and peaks in the yogurt rather than smoothing it flat.
Arrange the Fruit:
- The Strawberry Side: Place your whole strawberries in a cluster on the left. Lean the sliced strawberry halves against them, facing upward to show the interior pattern.
- The Banana Side: Shingle the banana slices in a curved line along the right side of the bowl, overlapping them slightly like scales.
Final Touch: If you have chia seeds, sprinkle a tiny pinch over the yogurt gaps for added texture.

Temperature: For a “soft serve” feel, put your yogurt in the freezer for 10–15 minutes before assembling.
Strawberry Shine: If your strawberries look a little dull, you can brush them with a tiny bit of honey or maple syrup to give them that photo-ready glisten.
