Both directions are legitimate — the score measures fullness per calorie, not virtue. Every version is the same dish, rebalanced.

Ingredients

1 1/3 cups whole-milk Greek yogurt340 g
8 berries strawberries, sliced120 g
1/2 cup blueberries80 g
1/2 cup granola50 g
2 tsp honey (optional)15 g

Every ingredient links to its food page — same data, same score, same formula.

Steps

Layer yogurt, berries and granola in two glasses — two rounds of each, granola last so it stays loud.
Honey over the top if the berries aren't sweet enough on their own.
Assemble at the last minute: granola that sits in yogurt is cereal that gave up.

What's the granola actually costing?

It's the densest thing in the glass — half a cup carries more calories than all the berries together. It earns its place as texture, which is why it goes on top where you taste every cluster, not stirred through where it vanishes.

Why this score

moderately filling

No single route carries this one — a moderate amount of protein, volume and fiber.

Three routes to fullness — one is enough

What pulls it down

How scores work

Computed on the finished dish, not an average of the parts: 703 kcal goes into the pot, 605 g of ingredients comes out as ~560 g of food → 126 kcal per 100 g. Cooking moves water, and energy density is the score's biggest lever — so we show the math. Full formula here.

Percentages are the share of calories from each macronutrient.

Computed from the ingredients' USDA data — nothing typed by hand. Every number is traceable, every score recomputable.
