Notes
MILK: you can use any milk of your choice. I prefer unsweetened soy milk because it provides the same amount of protein as dairy milk.
YOGURT: plain Greek yogurt is ideal for the higher protein content, and you don't want to add to much sweetness
FRUIT: you can use anything you like and have on hand. I like berries, and use a mix of fresh and frozen.
NUTS & SEEDS: my favourite additions are walnuts, pecans, pumpkin seeds, and sunflower seeds. But use whatever you like. The nuts should be chopped so they're not too big.
SWEETNESS: the prune puree, apple, and fruit adds sweetness, but I like to add a little drizzle of maple syrup. You can omit that if you find it sweet enough without.
STORAGE: store the containers in the fridge. They should last up to 4 days.
