# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • It comes together in under ten minutes but looks like you put real thought into it
  • The contrast between cold creamy yogurt and juicy fruit never gets old
  • You can assemble it ahead and still have everything taste fresh
02 -
  • Damp berries will weep into the yogurt and turn the whole thing watery within an hour
  • Granola gets soft quickly so these really are best eaten the same day you make them
03 -
  • Buy the thickest Greek yogurt you can find so the layers do not blur together
  • Taste your berries first and adjust the honey based on how sweet they are
