Nutrition
Blackberries, also known as brambles, are part of the rose family and there are more than 375 varieties found around the world.Blackberries are rich in vitamin C, vitamin E and folate, as well as providing useful fibre. A handful counts as one of your 5 a day.Greek yoghurt is higher in protein than other natural yoghurts, because the yoghurt is strained during manufacture, giving it a thicker consistency and concentrating the protein. Choose 2% or 0% fat varieties to get the most protein.
Starting the day with both protein and fibre should help to keep you fuller for longer through the morning.
