A quick and easy summer bowl featuring creamy Greek yogurt, crunchy toasted pistachios, fresh berries, and a drizzle of honey. Perfect for hot days when you want something cold, refreshing, and satisfying without cooking.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (240g) plain Greek yogurt (full-fat or 2%)
  • ½ cup (70g) shelled pistachios, roughly chopped
  • 1 cup (150g) mixed fresh berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, or blackberries)
  • 12 tablespoons (15-30ml) honey
  • 1 tablespoon (12g) chia seeds (optional)
  • Pinch of flaky sea salt
  • Few mint leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Toast the pistachios: Place the chopped pistachios in a dry small skillet over medium heat. Shake the pan occasionally, and toast for 2-3 minutes until they smell nutty and are lightly golden in spots. Transfer to a plate to cool.
  2. Prep your fruit: Wash and dry your berries. If using strawberries, hull and slice them. Leave smaller berries like blueberries whole. Pat everything dry with a paper towel.
  3. Build the base: Spoon the Greek yogurt into your serving bowl. Use the back of a spoon to create a little well in the center.
  4. Layer the crunch: Sprinkle the cooled toasted pistachios evenly over the yogurt.
  5. Add the fruit: Arrange the berries on top of the yogurt and pistachios.
  6. Drizzle and season: Drizzle the honey over everything. Sprinkle the flaky sea salt from a height.
  7. Finish with extras: Sprinkle the chia seeds over the top if using. Garnish with mint leaves.
  8. Serve immediately: Enjoy right away while the pistachios are still crunchy and the yogurt is cold.

Notes

For best texture, serve immediately. If meal-prepping, keep yogurt, pistachios, and fruit separate and assemble just before eating. Toasted pistachios can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for a few days. For a vegan version, use coconut yogurt and maple syrup instead of honey.
