What you need to make this recipe

First, let’s go over the 3 ingredients you will need to make this yogurt bark and how they can benefit your overall health. 

• Greek yogurt: Greek yogurt is a great way to include probiotics and protein in your diet if you can tolerate dairy products. Greek yogurt is also rich in vitamin D, which can help alleviate PCOS symptoms.
• Granola: Granola is packed with fiber which can help with promoting satiety and provide carbohydrates to fuel your body. Simona recommends choosing granola with whole grains and seeds, such as quinoa, chia seeds, flax seeds, and amaranth. If you are insulin resistant, you may also want to keep tabs on the sugar content.
• Peaches: Peaches are a good source of vitamin C, fiber, and antioxidants and help keep your immune system strong.

Other ways to make this recipe

You can always swap out any ingredients in recipes to suit your personal taste! Below are a few alternative ingredients that would also be incredibly yummy to try.

• Add maple syrup or agave for more sweetness
• Swap out strawberries or blueberries for the peaches
• Sub coconut, cashew, or oat milk yogurt for a dairy-free alternative
• Sprinkle chia seeds or flax seeds onto the bark for extra fiber
