What are you craving this summer?

For me, summer means taking a little break and slowing down a bit. What I crave is time off with my family to enjoy the simple things- lazy days at the beach or pool, grilling outdoors, outdoor music festivals, food truck events, etc. I crave cute summer dresses, colorful salads with vibrant summer vegetables, fresh berries, locally caught seafood, and plenty of sweet treats.

What is a fool?

What else am I craving this summer? These easy Lemon Raspberry Yogurt Fools. You might think that a fool is a strange name for a dessert but it's actually a traditional British dessert. A fruit fool is made by folding stewed fruit into custard or whipped cream. It's a simple and delicious dessert that’s perfect for summer. I decided to make a healthier version using Greek yogurt. It’s thick, creamy and satisfying and also gives you a boost of protein. It's the perfect healthy substitute for whipped cream.

How to Make Lemon Raspberry Yogurt Fools

To make the fools, I simmer fresh summer raspberries with a touch of honey and add some chia seeds to thicken the mixture slightly. Chia seeds are packed with beneficial nutrients like omega-3 fatty acids, fiber, and antioxidants. They're true superfoods! Read my post all about the health benefits of chia seeds.

Then I layer the berry compote with creamy Greek yogurt and tangy lemon curd, swirling it all together. The combination of sweet raspberries, tangy lemon curd and creamy yogurt is out of this world! Pure summer bliss.

So tell me, what are you craving this summer?
