Cooking with Kimmi - Easter Chocolate Protein Nest Bowls Recipe

Easter doesn't have to derail your progress. This chocolate protein nest bowl gives you all the Easter vibes — crunchy, sweet, chocolate-y — while delivering 30-35g of protein and high fibre to keep you satisfied.

No cooking. No guilt. Just a dessert-style breakfast or snack that actually fuels your goals.

Chocolate Protein Nest Bowl Ingredients (1 serve)

  • 1 scoop chocolate protein powder
  • ¾ cup Greek yogurt (or high-protein yogurt)
  • 1 tsp cocoa powder (unsweetened)
  • 1 tbsp peanut butter (or almond butter)
  • ½ cup All-Bran (or high-fibre cereal)
  • 6–8 mini Easter eggs (or dark chocolate pieces)

Optional Additions:

  • Drizzle of honey or maple syrup
  • Fresh strawberries or raspberries
  • Shredded coconut
  • Extra dark chocolate shavings
  • Crushed nuts for extra crunch

How to Make Easter Protein Nest Bowls

  1. In a bowl, mix chocolate protein powder, Greek yogurt, cocoa powder, and peanut butter until completely smooth and creamy
  2. Stir in the All-Bran cereal — this creates the signature "nest" texture with crunchy bits throughout
  3. Spoon the mixture into a serving bowl and use the back of a spoon to shape a slight well in the middle (like a bird's nest)
  4. Place mini Easter eggs on top to create the "eggs in a nest" effect
  5. Serve immediately for maximum crunch, or refrigerate for 10 minutes for a firmer, mousse-like texture

Done in 5 minutes. Easter breakfast sorted — and it supports your goals instead of sabotaging them.
