POST-LIFT · 3 MIN
Post-lift yogurt parfait.
35 grams of post-lift protein in something that eats like dessert. Layered grass-fed yogurt, crumbled Genesee White Chocolate Toffee bar, raw honey, cacao nibs. Three minutes from rack to spoon.
Why this works
The post-lift window wants protein + a real-food carb hit + something that doesn't feel like punishment. Greek yogurt + a crumbled bar gives you both — high-quality complete protein from two animal sources, dense ancestral fat, and minimal added sugar.
Ingredients
- 1 cup grass-fed Greek yogurt (Maple Hill or Stonyfield Whole Milk)
- 1 Genesee White Chocolate Toffee bar (crumbled into chunks)
- 1 tbsp raw honey
- 1 tbsp cacao nibs
- Optional: a few raspberries or sliced strawberries
- Pinch of flaky sea salt to finish
Method
- 1
Spoon half the yogurt into a wide bowl or jar. Drizzle with half the honey.
- 2
Crumble half the Genesee bar over the yogurt. Scatter half the cacao nibs.
- 3
Spoon the remaining yogurt on top. Drizzle the rest of the honey, then layer the rest of the bar chunks and cacao nibs.
- 4
Add berries if using. Finish with a small pinch of flaky sea salt — the salt is what makes this taste like dessert and not breakfast.
- 5
Eat within the post-lift window (30-60 min after the last set). The bar chunks soften slightly in the yogurt — the texture turns from crunchy to chewy in about 5 minutes, both windows are good.
Notes & variations
- Macros (approx): 460 cal · 35g protein · 32g carbs · 22g fat. Skip the honey if you're cutting; the bar carries enough sweetness without it.
- Cottage-cheese variation: swap full-fat cottage cheese for the yogurt — bumps the protein closer to 40g and changes the texture to creamier-but-thicker. Same prep.
- No grass-fed yogurt? Whole-milk Greek yogurt is the next-best swap. Avoid 0% / fat-free — the fat is part of the recipe, not a number to minimize.
