A variant on Eton Mess




Boxing Day is a time for playing with Christmas presents, for recovering from eating too much the day before but also for wondering what to do with leftover food. I found myself with lots of berries and a packet of individual meringues.  Eton mess came to mind and I did also have cream to spare, but I felt I had already had too much of that yesterday. However, I had Greek style yoghurt on hand, of course. The combination of the yoghurt, raspberries, blackberries, cherries and individual meringues resulted in a delicious combination of flavours and textures. And it wasn’t too sweet or too rich! This is indeed something that I will make again.




Ingredients (per person)

2 individual meringues (bought or pre-made)
3 tbs Greek style yoghurt
Cup of fruit (raspberries, blackberries and cherries) - pip the cherries in advance in you wish

Mode

Place the fruit in a individual bowl 
Spoon over the yoghurt
Add the meringues
Using a spoon crush the meringues and combine the ingredients.
Serve and  enjoy!
