Yogurt has been my go-to dessert at lunch time for the past few years. I specifically love taking plain greek yogurt and packing it full of delicious and healthy toppings! For a while, I was topping my plain greek yogurt with strawberries and chocolate chips. Then, I moved to peanut butter and chocolate chips.
Thanks to Catherine (Weelicious), PB&J was the next best thing! I’ve been slowly working Liam up to enjoying yogurt with me. He doesn’t quite have the spoon thing down yet, so it’s lots of fun feeding him! 😉
Having PB&J yogurt is such a great snack or meal replacement idea. It’s packed with protein and dairy and low in sugar. A winner for a tasty treat that will keep you fuller, longer!
Catherine gives a lot more yogurt inspired recipes in her cookbook, which you’ll have a chance to win down below! 😀 In the meantime, here’s a list of yogurt recipes in her cookbook:
- Hubby’s ‘Better Than Ice Cream’
- Fruity Delight
- Zippy Yogurt Tahini Sauce
- Veg-Wee Dip
- Cucumber Dip
- Caramelized Onion Dip

PB&J Yogurt Swirls
from Weelicious Lunches
Ingredients
- 2 cups plain greek yogurt (I used Stonyfield)
- 1/4 cup preserves (I used strawberry)
- 1/4 cup creamy peanut butter
How-To
- Divide the yogurt into four bowls.
- In a microwave safe bowl, heat the preserves until liquified. Do the same with the peanut butter in a separate bowl.
- Drizzle the preserves and peanut butter equally among the four bowls. Swirl together and enjoy!

I love this “recipe,” Caroline! I stir a little preserves into and sprinkle nuts onto yogurt nearly every day for lunch or a snack, and it is divine. Love the idea of doing PB instead of the nuts – mmmm!

I usually eat my yogurt with sliced fruit in it. I don’t do pb&j, but I’m not above it. I don’t really care for granola though.

I love plain yogurt with fresh fruit and a little crunchy topping of cereal. My son LOVES yogurt any way I give it to him so I like to sneak in extra veggies by mixing in frozen & thawed chopped organic spinach. It sounds weird but isn’t much different than a spinach dip or creamed spinach if you think about it.
I normally just add fruit, nuts and sometimes crushed shredded wheat. The peanut butter and jelly is a great idea!
Right now for fall, I love diced apples and a dash of cinnamon with my yogurt!
