Today, my mom texted me the best idea!! She called it "Yogurt Sundaes." Her original recipe involved using waffle-cone bowls (which sounds de-lish!!).However, since I am trying to post some recipes that our paleo friends can use, I just made a little change, and created a "fruit bowl" to put the sundaes in! If it is a cheat day, feel free to rock that waffle-cone bowl!! :)
It was a little tedious, but so fun and creative!! I loved her idea!!
To start off with, I took a LARGE apple (the biggest ones I could find at the store), because being a big eater like I am, those little apples just weren't a big enough bowl for me :) I chopped the top off of the apple and munched on it while I was making the rest of the treat.
Then, I hollowed out the apple using a grapefruit scooper (however, it might be easier if you had a melon baller with a serrated edge or one of those spoons that scoops the leaves off of strawberries. This explains my crude-looking apple. You have to be extra careful not to scoop too much off the bottom, or you will end up with a little hole in the bottom of your bowl like I did, therefore causing me to have to put a normal bowl around my apple to prevent leakage :) I once again defer to Julia Child- "Never apologize!!"
Then I filled my apple with plain yogurt (greek yogurt would also be delicious), and as you can see, due to my hole, some leaked out :)
This is the creative part!! Pile on/mix in any healthy treats of your own. Berries, carob pieces, dark chocolate pieces, sliced grapes, whatever!!
Drizzle with honey/agave/maple syrup and enjoy!! YUM :)
