Blueberry Vanilla Yogurt Bowl

There are mornings when everything feels rushed and loud, when breakfast becomes an afterthought instead of a moment of care. This blueberry vanilla yogurt bowl was born on one of those quiet reset days, when slowing down felt necessary rather than optional. The warmth of softened blueberries, their juices turning deep purple, always reminds me that simple food can feel deeply comforting. It is the kind of breakfast that does not demand perfection or fancy tools. It simply asks you to show up, stir gently, and give yourself something nourishing.

What I love most about this bowl is its balance. It feels indulgent but is quietly wholesome. The vanilla yogurt is creamy and familiar, the blueberries add gentle sweetness, and the chia seeds thicken everything into something that feels grounding. After resting, the bowl transforms, becoming almost dessert-like while still being practical enough for a weekday morning. Toppings are where personality shines through. Some days it is crunchy granola, other days just banana slices and coconut. This recipe has followed me through busy workdays, slow weekends, and even late-night cravings when I wanted something comforting but light. It is forgiving, flexible, and always reliable. If you are looking for a breakfast that feels like a small act of kindness to yourself, this one delivers every single time.

Step-by-Step Instructions to Make Lemon Butter Chicken Breast :

Step 1 :

Microwave the frozen blueberries for 1 minute until soft. Mash them gently using a fork in the OXO Good Grips 3 Quart Mixing Bowl, though any bowl from your kitchen works just fine.

Step 2 :

Stir in the vanilla Greek yogurt, agave or honey, and chia seeds. I mix everything using the Cuisinart Silicone Spatula, but a regular spoon works perfectly.

Step 3 :

Cover the bowl and refrigerate for 2 hours to allow the chia seeds to thicken the mixture.

Step 4 :

Top with banana slices, granola, berries, or coconut. I like serving it chilled using my Pyrex Glass Mixing Bowl, but any serving bowl is great.
