Healthy snack

What you need in the middle of winter is a good intake of vitamins through fresh fruit. As I need to take some extra calcium too for the strength of the baby's bones, I have been eating regularly this delicious fruit salad on a bed of plain stirred yoghurt.

A feel-good snack much necessary after all the rich Christmas food. I have swallowed more butter in 5 days during our stay in France than I have at home in the past year...


Makes 1 bowl:

3 TBSP plain stirred yoghurt (or any other yoghurt you like)

+ a combination of the following or any other fruit you like:

1 kiwi, peeled and sliced
1 handful of blueberries, thoroughly washed
1 clementine, peeled and divided in segments
1/2 grapefruit, divided in segments
1 slice of pineapple, cut into chunks
2 dried apricots, chopped

You can use tinned fruit if you fancy some out-of-season fruit, like summer berries or peaches. For extra sweetness, why not add a dash of honey, maple or guava syrup?
