Ingredients
Scale
- 1/2 of a Ripe Banana - Mashed
- 3/4 cup of Plain Fat Free Greek Yogurt
- 1 Scoop of Vanilla Protein Powder

Notes
- Choose Ripe Bananas:Start with ripe bananas for a natural sweetness that enhances the flavor of your pudding. The natural sugars in ripe bananas will contribute to the overall sweetness of the dish.
- Use a Food Processor for Creaminess:Achieve a smooth and creamy texture by using a food processor to blend the bananas. This ensures a consistent texture and helps incorporate the protein elements seamlessly.
- Incorporate Protein Powder:Boost the protein content of your pudding by adding a high-quality protein powder. Opt for a flavor that complements the bananas, such as vanilla or banana-flavored protein powder.
- Add a Bit of Vanilla Extract:Enhance the overall flavor profile by adding a touch of pure vanilla extract. This will add depth and warmth to the pudding without adding unnecessary calories.
- Sweeten with Maple Syrup:Instead of using refined sugars, sweeten your pudding with a touch of pure maple syrup. This natural sweetener adds richness and depth without compromising your Weight Watchers goals.
- Choose Fresh Berries:Incorporate fresh berries into your pudding for a burst of freshness and added nutritional benefits. Berries not only provide natural sweetness but also bring vibrant colors and antioxidants to the dish.
- Layer with Graham Cracker Squares:Create delightful layers in your pudding by adding crushed graham cracker squares. This adds a satisfying crunch and a subtle hint of a classic dessert while keeping the points in check.
- Opt for Fat-Free Cool Whip:Keep the indulgence factor in check by using fat-free cool whip. It adds a luscious, airy texture without the extra calories and points associated with traditional whipped cream.
- Mindful Portion Control:Pay attention to portion sizes to stay on track with your Weight Watchers plan. Use smaller serving bowls or containers to help with portion control and avoid overindulgence.
- Garnish with Chocolate Chips:For a touch of decadence, sprinkle a few dark chocolate chips on top. Dark chocolate adds a rich, intense flavor, and using them sparingly ensures a satisfying chocolatey experience without going overboard on points.
