G&B’s Strawberry Yogurt Parfait

Favorite fruit combo right now. Strawberries, kiwi, banana.Β  I just discovered how awesome this trio is and I probably deserve a Nobel prize now.

I based a minted pea potato salad on this recipeΒ and loved the result. I hate sloppy, mushy, overly-dressed potato salads and in this recipe, the peas and herbs take the stage. In my version, I used just greek yogurt, added basil, extra mint, goat cheese and parmesan.Β  My mom also makes a killer potato salad that isn’t drowning in mayo.Β  I will get the recipe from her and share it this summer.

When I was in Hawaii, I ordered a purple yam and sweet potato salad that was annihilated with Miracle Whip. I’ll probably never get over it. Haven’t had a good nights sleep since then.

Lately, my bedtime snack has taken the form of fresh berries and yogurt. With Green&Blacks dark chocolate shavings.

It was almost too pretty to eat! I used the chocolate squares as a spoon. Best idea ever.

Into the mason jar went:
3/4 cup plain greek yogurt
1/2 cup sliced strawberries
80 4 squares Green&Blacks 70% dark chocolate + shavings

Have you tried/Do you love Green&Blacks chocolate? It’s what gets me through life. They have a crazy good white chocolate vanilla bar that I’m obsessed with. I ate two bars last week. Plus an espresso bar. Can’t stop. Won’t stop. (Said in a Diddy voice. Is his name still Diddy?)
