# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • It's ready in ten minutes but tastes like you spent an hour pampering yourself in the kitchen
  • The combination of creamy, crunchy, tart, and sweet creates a symphony of flavors that keeps your palate dancing
  • It's naturally gluten-free and so nutrient-dense you'll actually feel energized instead of sluggish after eating breakfast
02 -
  • The order of assembly matters more than you'd think—always put the yogurt down first so it has something to cling to, rather than having it all slide to the bottom of the bowl
  • Room temperature citrus tastes sweeter and more flavorful than cold citrus pulled straight from the fridge. If you have time, let it sit for ten minutes before preparing
  • The honey won't mix into cold yogurt the way you'd hope—it needs warmth. Some mornings, I warm the honey slightly in a small bowl so it becomes more fluid and distributes beautifully
03 -
  • If you have the time and inclination, lightly toasting your nuts for three to four minutes in a dry skillet will make them taste so much more vibrant and alive
  • The texture contrast is everything in this bowl—if your nuts are getting soft, store them separately and add them right before eating
