Strawberry Chia Yogurt Cup

Illustration of a clear yogurt cup layered with strawberries, oats, chia seeds and walnut pieces

Generated serving illustration. Measured recipe quantities determine the nutrition; the image does not establish portion size.

This breakfast cup layers five familiar foods without treating any of them as a single-nutrient ingredient. The yogurt, oats, chia and walnuts all contribute more than one macronutrient; the numbers below include each contribution.

Choose plain nonfat Greek yogurt and oats labeled suitable for no-cook preparation. The seeds are stirred into a moist food rather than served dry on their own. The recipe is an assembled breakfast idea, not a claim that a fixed serving fits everyone’s needs or produces identical block counts.

Adjust one portion.

Start with one serving of this recipe, then change its size. Each nutrient changes together; increasing protein also changes carbohydrate, fat and energy.

Measured ingredients for this adjusted portion

    These controls calculate a single adjusted portion from the recipe’s original yield. They do not change the saved recipe, its structured data, cooking method or estimated preparation time. No personal calculator entries are sent or stored.

    Timing is an estimate, not a record of a tested kitchen session. Nutrition is calculated from the exact USDA ingredient states listed below.

    Make it step by step

    1. Use a clean serving glass or bowl. Rinse the strawberries, remove their leafy tops, and weigh the edible amount before slicing.
    2. Stir the measured chia seeds and oats through the yogurt so they are moistened. Use oats appropriate for no-cook preparation; otherwise choose a matching cooked-food record and recalculate.
    3. Layer the yogurt mixture and strawberries, then add the chopped walnuts. Serve without unlisted sweeteners or toppings. No cooking is required.

    Original added-fat equivalent (÷1.5): 5.10. This is a separate convention, not an extra fat allowance.

    Separate block counts do not mean this recipe is an exactly balanced Zone meal. Total carbohydrate is shown as well as carbohydrate minus fiber. Nutrients are scaled from USDA reference entries and summed before rounding; they are estimates, not a laboratory analysis.

    Source and preparation notes

    The listed time excludes optional resting or soaking. Mixing changes texture but is not a raw-to-cooked yield calculation. Keep the dairy ingredients chilled until assembly. Any alternative yogurt, sweetener or topping needs its own nutrient record. Database-derived estimates, not laboratory analysis. Exact starting preparation states are specified. No raw-to-cooked yield, nutrient-retention factor or finished per100g concentration is invented. Heating may change water or nutrient content; brand and preparation differences remain. Eat the full listed serving including dressing for these estimates. Times are editorial estimates; no physical kitchen testing was performed.
