Since last year I changed my regular breakfast from bread, buns or rolls – rich in carbohydrates – to high-protein breakfast bowls with fruit. Heidi Swanson offers inspiring ideas for yoghurt breakfast bowls. I prefer quark or skyr. Both are yoghurt-like but the protein content is nearly 2,5 times higher. Lots of protein and less carbohydrates let you feel longer satisfied, this helps me not to gain weight.
I was inspired bei Heidi’s Pomegranate Yogurt Bowl Recipe Instead of pomegranate juice I used red currant juice – our local superfood growing in every garden – and enriched it with puffed amaranth, also high in protein.
Red Currant Skyr Bowl
Another healthy and tasty breakfast bowl.

What a sound approach to load up on protein and cut out the carb in our diet. What a beautiful bowl, especially with the red currant juice.
Switching from carbs to yogurt must’ve been tough at first:)
Black current is something I’ve never had and would love to try. This bowl looks gorgeous and I know I’d be very happy to wake up to it.
Oh, ein Rezept mit Skyr! Den mag ich total gern. Einmal ein low fat-Produkt, das nach etwas schmeckt.
Stimmt und je nach Hersteller schmecken die unterschiedlich, ich nehme den auch, wenn Schmand aus ist, und es nur um den säuerlichen Geschmack geht
Ich wusste gar nicht, dass Quark 2,5 x so viel Eiweiß hat wie Joghurt – ich mag nämlich Quark! :-)
Wieder was gelernt. Brot o.ä. zum Frühstück mochte ich noch nie besonders; da ist mir so eine Schüssel lieber. Mit regionalem Superfood umso mehr.
Aber ja, Joghurt hat – je nach Fettgehalt – durchschnittlich zwischen 3,5 und 3,9 % Fett. Mein Skyr hat eine Nährwertkennzeichnung und weist das Eiweiß mit 10 g/110 Gramm aus, Speisequark mit 20 % Fett in der Trockenmasse hat sogar 12,5 g/100 g Eiweiß.

What a wonderful looking breakfast…and so interesting about your choice of using skyr or quark, I will go in search of that here and give it a try. Carbs for breakfast have never been my favorite, it feels much better physically for me to have a protein instead in the mornings. Such a pretty photo of it all.
I think you’ll find skyr, but quark will be difficult; a lot of German expats complain the lack of quark in the US ;-)
Such a healthy bowl of breakfast! Skyr is new to me. I will have to google for more info as it sounds great! And so envious of your fresh red currants!
The red currant season is from June to August, I used them fresh from the freezer ;-)
