Mazzullo, N. 2024, Fresh Fruit with Warm Honey Yogurt Topping, Extension | University of Nevada, Reno, Recipes

The recipe below uses seasonal peaches and watermelon, a great combination. Did you know you can use your EBT card at most Nevada farmers' markets to stock up on these delicious fruits, other in-season summer vegetables, and local honey?

Level: Easy	Prep:	Yield: 4 servings
Total: 15 minutes	Inactive:	Serving Size: 1 cup fruit, ¼ cup topping

Ingredients

4 cups of fresh fruit, such as berries, melons, pears, plums, peaches or a combination
1 lemon
1 cup nonfat vanilla yogurt
2 tablespoons honey

Directions

Wash and cut fruits. Rinse and zest lemon using the small holes on a box grater.
Divide fruit evenly among four bowls.
Combine yogurt, honey and lemon zest in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave for one minute. Stir well.
Drizzle honey yogurt topping over the fruit and serve.

Cook's Note

For the best price, use whatever fruits are in season. You can also use thawed frozen fruit, but be sure to drain well before adding it to the bowls.
If you do not have a microwave, warm the honey yogurt topping on the stove in a small skillet over low heat.
Add dried fruit, such as raisins, dried figs, dates, prunes, or cranberries, to the fresh fruit.
Use juice from the lemon in another recipe, such as Herb Roasted Chicken with Vegetables.
