Easy Greek Yogurt Protein Bites (No-Bake & High-Protein Snack)

I started making Greek Yogurt Protein Bites when I needed a quick snack that actually kept me full between meals. I love having something homemade in the fridge that feels a little indulgent but is still packed with protein.

These bites come together fast, don’t require baking, and use simple ingredients I usually already have on hand. What I enjoy most is how flexible they are—I can switch up the flavors depending on my mood or what’s in my pantry.

Greek yogurt gives them a creamy texture without feeling heavy, and they’re perfect for busy mornings, post-workout snacks, or a small afternoon pick-me-up. This is one of those recipes I make on repeat because it’s easy, reliable, and always satisfying.
