The perfect summer dessert

Greek-Yogurt

I have a slight obsession with Greek yogurt lately. Whether it’s served with granola and honey for breakfast or as a sauce when mixed with fresh herbs to accompany chicken or fish, Greek yogurt is perfect any time of day at any meal! I came across this scrumptious recipe in the latest issue of Cooking Light. I can’t wait to try it on a summer night as an alternative to ice cream.

Greek Yogurt with Warm Black and Blueberry Sauce

Ingredients
  • 2/3 cup frozen blueberries
  • 2/3 cup frozen blackberries
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 2 cups plain 2% reduced-fat Greek yogurt
Directions
  1. 1. Combine first 5 ingredients in a small saucepan. Bring mixture to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low; gently boil 10 minutes or until sauce thickens. Stir in butter.
  2. 2. Spoon 1/2 cup yogurt into each of 4 bowls; top each serving with about 1/4 cup sauce. Serve immediately.
