- Low carb: Fresh strawberries and sugar-free sweetener keep net carbs very low.
- Sugar-free: No added sugar — only sugar-free alternatives.
- Portion-friendly: Break into small pieces for easy tracking.
Key element — spread it thin
A thin, even layer freezes faster and breaks into clean pieces. Too thick and the bark becomes hard to snap and icy in the center.
Ingredients
Bark (about 10 pieces)
- 2 cups plain full-fat Greek yogurt
- 1 scoop vanilla or strawberry protein powder
- 2–3 Tbsp powdered sugar-free sweetener (to taste)
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- ¾ cup diced fresh strawberries
- Optional: 1 Tbsp chia seeds or sugar-free chocolate chips
- Optional: pinch of salt
Swaps
- Higher protein: Add an extra ½ scoop protein powder and a splash of cream if the mix gets too thick.
- Dairy-free: Use a thick dairy-free yogurt and plant-based protein powder.
- Mixed berry: Swap some strawberries for raspberries or blueberries.
- Chocolate swirl: Drizzle melted sugar-free chocolate over the top before freezing.
Instructions
| 1 | Mix the base. In a bowl, stir together the Greek yogurt, protein powder, sweetener, vanilla, and optional salt until smooth. |
| 2 | Spread. Line a small baking sheet or tray with parchment. Spread the yogurt mixture into a thin, even layer about ¼ inch thick. |
| 3 | Top. Scatter diced strawberries (and chia seeds or chocolate chips if using) over the surface. Gently press them in so they stick. |
| 4 | Freeze and break. Freeze 2–3 hours, or until firm. Lift the parchment and break or cut the bark into about 10 pieces. Store in the freezer. |
Pro tips
- Spread the yogurt thin so it freezes evenly and snaps cleanly.
- Pat strawberries dry before adding so the bark doesn’t get icy.
- Use parchment so the bark lifts off easily.
- Store pieces in a freezer bag with parchment between layers.
- Let sit 1–2 minutes before eating if it freezes very hard.
