Calories: 170

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt divided into thirds
  • 1 scoop vanilla protein powder
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1/4 tsp orange food coloring
  • 1/4 tsp yellow food coloring
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt

Method
 

  1. Divide the Greek yogurt evenly into three small bowls.
  2. Whisk the protein powder, honey, vanilla extract, and salt evenly across all three bowls, dividing each ingredient into thirds.
  3. Leave one bowl of yogurt plain white.
  4. Tint the second bowl with yellow food coloring, stirring until evenly colored.
  5. Tint the third bowl with orange food coloring, stirring until evenly colored.
  6. In two small clear serving cups, layer the orange yogurt on the bottom, followed by the yellow layer, and finish with the white layer on top to mimic candy corn stripes.
  7. Chill in the fridge for at least 15 minutes to let the layers set slightly.
  8. Serve cold.

Notes

A small bottle of food coloring lasts for years across many recipes, so the entire candy corn effect here costs just a few extra cents per batch.
