Ingredients

Scale

Gelatin Base

  • 1 large box (0.6 oz) sugar-free jello
  • 2 cups hot water

Protein Mix

  • 2 scoops (60 grams total) vanilla protein powder
  • 2 cups full fat plain Greek yogurt

Instructions

  1. Dissolve the Jello: In a bowl, completely dissolve the sugar-free Jello powder in 2 cups of hot water. Stir thoroughly to ensure there are no granules left. Once dissolved, pour the Jello and water mixture into a blender.
  2. Blend the Ingredients: Add 2 scoops (60 grams) of vanilla protein powder and 2 cups of full-fat plain Greek yogurt to the blender. Blend the mixture until it becomes smooth and creamy, ensuring the protein powder and yogurt are fully incorporated with the gelatin.
  3. Refrigerate to Set: Pour the blended mixture evenly into eight 5.5-ounce cups. Place the cups in the refrigerator and chill for at least 1 hour, or until the Jello is completely set and has a firm, gelled texture. Serve chilled for best taste and texture.

Notes

  • Use full-fat Greek yogurt for creamier texture and richer flavor, but low-fat options can be substituted if preferred.
  • Ensure the Jello is completely dissolved in hot water before blending to avoid gritty texture.
  • For added sweetness, consider using a sugar-free sweetener if your protein powder is not sweetened.
  • Protein powder flavors other than vanilla, such as chocolate, can be used to vary the flavor profile.
  • For a dairy-free option, substitute Greek yogurt with a thick plant-based yogurt and use dairy-free protein powder.
  • This recipe yields eight servings and is excellent for meal-prep or quick on-the-go snacks.
