Greek yogurt with pistachios and preserves

Why buy pre-flavored, sugar laden Greek yogurts when plain yogurt is a beautiful canvas to add and create your own delicious snack or breakfast? 

This is my absolute favorite way to eat Greek yogurt

What you'll need 

1 cup 2% strained Greek yogurt (Fage) 

1oz shelled pistachios, chopped 

1-2 tablespoons of Smuckers sugar free blackberry preserves 

1/2 tablespoon of dried currants for flavor and texture 

Place yogurt in a bowl

(I like to use a chilled bowl to keep to yogurt nice and cold while eating)

Top with the next 3 ingredients and enjoy! 

Eggs in a nest 🐣

This fun, fast and easy breakfast or snack will help you grab and go and can even be eaten cold 

What you'll need:

Cooking spray 

6 slices of bacon or turkey bacon 

6 large eggs

3oz of shredded cheese of choice 

scallion greens for garnish 

Preheat oven for 375

Spray a large muffin tin with cooking spray 

Wrap the inside diameter of tin with a slice of bacon but do not overlap (so trim if necessary) 

Cook in oven until 3/4 done

Remove tin and crack one egg in each "nest" 

Top with cheese and bake until egg is no longer runny. 

Top with scallion greens and enjoy! 

Tip: for extra protein and flavor top each "muffin" with a tablespoon of plain 2% Greek yogurt before adding scallion greens

Slice tomato in about 1/4" round slices then slice peaches in slightly thinner rounds.

Like so
