Vanilla Bean Yogurt and Berries

Vanilla Bean Yogurt and Berries

Shopping List

1. Vanilla Bean greek yogurt

2. Berries/fruit of your choice. I use blueberries, pineapple, pomegranate seeds, and raspberries. I use frozen fruit for this. 

Recipe

1. Heat your frozen fruit in the microwave until they are soft but heated through. This will give the illusion to your brain that you're eating a piece of blueberry pie with ice cream. This step being the warm blueberry pie.

2. Pour your yogurt on top of the berries. Mix it around if you like. I prefer to keep it unmixed so that it's like dipping your blueberry pie in ice cream. 

I promise. This is so easy. And it counteracts all of those calories in the pizza you ate for dinner. 

Well, that's at least how I like to think of it ;)
