Good to Know

This tangy sweet treat is infused with a splash of alcohol and lemon zest to balance out the sweet flavors of meringue cookies and blueberries.  Enjoy one cup for just 172 calories!

Ingredients

  • 4 cups fresh blueberries
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 2 cups low-fat plain Greek yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons triple sec or Grand Marnier
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon grated lemon zest
  • 2 cups coarsely chopped meringue cookies (plain or lemon flavored)

Preparation

1. Combine berries and 1 Tbsp. sugar in a large bowl. Mash with the back of a spoon until a little juice seeps out.

2. In another bowl, whisk yogurt, remaining sugar, triple sec, vanilla and lemon zest. Add yogurt mixture and cookies to blueberries and gently fold with a rubber spatula just until streaks of blueberries swirl through the yogurt. Spoon into glass dishes and serve immediately.
