It’s summer, and here in the South, it’s really hot. I wake up hungry, and I know I need to eat something with protein instead of some sugary cold cereal, but I don’t want heavy, warm, gooey omelet. *shudder* Luckily, I picked blueberries from plants at a horticulture lab on campus (Ask around! I bet someone you know knows where to find free blueberries or blackberries this summer!) and was inspired to make one of my favorite, simple, crazy-delicious breakfast-y snack foods.

Vanilla Spice Fruit & Yogurt with Nuts

  • 1/2 cup plain dairy or soy yogurt (or vanilla, if you can handle sugar early in the morning :D )
  • 1/2 cup sliced peaches, fresh or frozen berries, apple chunks, or other fruit
  • 1/4 cup walnuts, pecans, or other nuts
  • 1/8 tsp cinnamon
  • tiny pinch of nutmeg
  • splash of vanilla extract
  • honey, brown sugar, or molasses to taste (optional: fruit may be sweet enough)

Toss everything into a pretty bowl. Admire. Scarf. Repeat.
