Triple Berry Protein Breakfast (3 Ways)

When mornings feel busy—or your appetite feels a little unpredictable—having a simple, nourishing breakfast you can adapt makes all the difference. This triple berry protein breakfast is one of those go-to options that works whether you want something fresh and crunchy, blended and creamy, or prepped ahead and ready to grab. In addition, starting your day with a solid amount of protein can help to manage hunger, energy and cravings.

Berries provide antioxidants and fiber, healthy fats support blood sugar balance, and adding collagen protein helps boost protein intake without changing the flavor or texture. It’s gentle, satisfying, and easy to customize—exactly what we’re after when building sustainable habits.

Below are three ways to enjoy the same core ingredients, so you can choose what fits your morning best.

1. Triple Berry Protein Breakfast Bowl

This version is fresh, textured, and perfect when you want something you can sit down and enjoy.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup strawberries, sliced

  • 1 cup blueberries

  • 1 cup blackberries

  • 2 tablespoons almond butter

  • 2 tablespoons hemp seeds

  • 1/4 cup slivered almonds

  • 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk

  • 7–10 grams collagen protein (mixed into almond milk)

Directions

  1. Wash and prepare the berries.

  2. Add berries to a bowl.

  3. Sprinkle with hemp seeds and slivered almonds.

  4. Whisk collagen protein into the almond milk until smooth.

  5. Drizzle almond butter over the bowl and pour almond milk on top.

  6. Enjoy immediately.

Why this works:
This bowl delivers fiber, healthy fats, and protein to support steady energy and fullness—without feeling heavy or overly restrictive.

Estimated Nutrition (1 bowl):

  • Calories: 520–550

  • Protein: 22–25g

  • Carbohydrates: 40–45g

  • Fat: 32–35g

  • Fiber: 14–16g

Macro highlights:

  • High fiber from berries, hemp seeds, and almonds

  • Healthy fats for blood sugar balance

  • Moderate protein that feels satisfying without heaviness

This is a great option when you want something grounding and filling that will keep you steady for hours.

 
 

2. Triple Berry Protein Shake

Perfect for busy mornings, post-workout fuel, or when you want something easy to sip.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup strawberries

  • 1 cup blueberries

  • 1 cup blackberries

  • 2 tablespoons almond butter

  • 2 tablespoons hemp seeds

  • 1/2–1 cup unsweetened almond milk

  • 7–10 grams collagen protein

  • Ice, as needed

Directions

  1. Add all ingredients to a high-speed blender.

  2. Blend until smooth and creamy.

  3. Adjust thickness with more almond milk or ice as desired.

  4. Pour into a glass and enjoy.

Optional additions:

  • A scoop of vanilla protein powder for extra protein

  • A handful of spinach for added micronutrients

  • Cinnamon or vanilla extract for flavor

Why this works:
Blended meals are often easier to digest and can be especially helpful when appetite is low or mornings feel rushed.

Estimated Nutrition (1 shake):

  • Calories: 480–510

  • Protein: 22–24g

  • Carbohydrates: 35–40g

  • Fat: 28–30g

  • Fiber: 12–14g

Macro highlights:

  • Slightly lower calories than the bowl due to less volume

  • Easier digestion

  • Great post-movement or when appetite is lower

If you add a full scoop of protein powder, protein will jump closer to 35–40g.

Triple Berry Protein Chia Pudding

This is a great make-ahead option that works beautifully for structured mornings or grab-and-go fuel.

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk

  • 7–10 grams collagen protein

  • 2 tablespoons chia seeds

  • 1/2 cup mixed berries (fresh or frozen)

  • 1 tablespoon almond butter

  • Optional toppings: hemp seeds, slivered almonds

Directions

  1. Whisk collagen protein into almond milk until fully dissolved.

  2. Stir in chia seeds.

  3. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.

  4. When ready to eat, top with berries, almond butter, and any additional toppings.

Why this works:
Chia pudding supports digestion, keeps blood sugar stable, and makes mornings feel effortless without skipping nourishment.

Estimated Nutrition (1 serving):

  • Calories: 430–460

  • Protein: 18–21g

  • Carbohydrates: 28–32g

  • Fat: 28–30g

  • Fiber: 14–16g

Macro highlights:

  • Lower carb than the bowl and shake

  • Very blood-sugar friendly

  • Excellent make-ahead option

This one shines when digestion, satiety, and simplicity are priorities.

 
 

Why Add Collagen Protein?

Collagen is a gentle way to boost protein intake without changing taste or texture. While it doesn’t replace complete proteins entirely, it supports:

  • Muscle maintenance

  • Skin, hair, and joint health

  • Satiety and blood sugar balance when paired with other proteins and fats

Adding 7–10 grams to almond milk is an easy habit that fits seamlessly into bowls, shakes, and puddings.

Wrapping It UP

This is a great example of how nourishing meals don’t need to be complicated. By starting with a simple, whole-food base and learning how to adapt it, you create flexibility—and flexibility is what makes healthy habits stick.

Choose the version that fits your morning, your appetite, and your lifestyle. Over time, these small, supportive choices add up in a big way.
