Ingredients
Instructions
-
If using oats and you want them toasted: heat a small dry skillet over medium‑low heat. Add oats and toast, stirring frequently, 3–5 minutes until lightly golden and fragrant. Let cool. (Skip if using puffed rice.)
-
In a small bowl, gently mash half the berries with 1 tsp maple syrup or stevia (if using) to make a quick compote. Leave the rest whole for texture.
-
(Optional) Stir vanilla into the yogurt.
-
In two small glasses or jars, layer: 2–3 tbsp yogurt, 2 tbsp mashed berry compote, 1–2 tbsp crunchy oats/puffed rice, 2–3 tbsp yogurt, whole berries, and a final sprinkle of oats/puffed rice. Repeat layers if using 1 serving jar.
-
Garnish with a sprinkle of cinnamon, lemon zest, or a small mint leaf. Serve immediately (or chill up to 2 hours).

Note
Why This Is Kidney Friendly
- Uses measured portions of low‑fat Greek yogurt to supply high‑quality protein while keeping phosphorus moderate — adjust portion size per your renal-diet plan.
- Fresh berries add sweetness and antioxidants with modest potassium when kept to ~1/2 cup per serving.
- The crunchy component is a small portion of plain toasted oats or puffed rice (instead of nuts/granola), keeping phosphorus and potassium low.
- No added salt, processed toppings, or phosphate‑containing additives.
