I know I’ve mentioned many times before (so, sorry for those of you who are tired of hearing about it!) that the Farmers Market is one of my favourite places to be in the summer time. And living in Eastern Europe really affords us some unique produce at the seasonal markets – the fruits and veggies from Greece, Turkey, Northern Africa, Spain and Bulgaria are fresher than anything I’ve ever tasted before. I just love all the Easter Mediterranean fruits and vegetables that start showing up at various stands this time of year and this week I could not resist the figs! I knew I had to make something delicious and beautiful and so these Healthy Honey and Fig Breakfast Bowls were born!LOOKING FOR MORE KID-APPROVED MEALS?

I eat a version of this breakfast almost every morning and of course it varies depending on the seasonal produce available. I was so happy to get my hands on some fresh Turkish figs this week, and I was equally excited to get my camera out so I could capture their beauty and simplicity – aren’t they gorgeous!!?? I love making these breakfast bowls for myself and the kids with our favourite homemade granola, fresh Greek yogurt, whatever fruit is available at the moment, and a nice drizzle of local honey. In the winter we eat them with apples, bananas, or oranges, and in the summer with fresh berries, fresh local peaches or nectarines, plums, and figs! And you can make them dairy-free too, with your favourite dairy-free yogurt substitute. My husband’s favourite is the Alpro Coconut Yogurt – it’s delish!NEVER MISS A POST! FOLLOW ME ON:
