This high-polyphenol berry bowl is a celebration of colour and texture. Blueberries, pomegranate seeds, and dark cocoa nibs layer on top of a creamy Greek yogurt base, finished with chia seeds, walnuts, and a drizzle of raw honey. It comes together in under ten minutes and makes for a deeply satisfying breakfast or afternoon snack that looks as good as it tastes.

Ingredients

200 g full-fat Greek yogurt
100 g fresh or frozen blueberries
60 g fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
40 g pomegranate seeds
1 tbsp raw cacao nibs
1 tbsp chia seeds
30 g walnut halves, roughly chopped
1 tsp raw honey
½ tsp ground cinnamon
A few fresh mint leaves, to garnish (optional)

Instructions

Spoon the Greek yogurt into a wide, shallow bowl and spread it out gently with the back of a spoon to form an even base.
Arrange the blueberries, sliced strawberries, and pomegranate seeds over the yogurt in sections or however you like — there are no rules here.
Scatter the cacao nibs, chia seeds, and chopped walnuts evenly over the top.
Drizzle with raw honey and dust lightly with ground cinnamon.
Garnish with fresh mint leaves if using. Serve immediately.

Tips

Frozen berries: If using frozen blueberries, let them thaw for 5–10 minutes first so they don't water down the yogurt too much.
Dairy-free swap: Coconut yogurt or unsweetened almond yogurt works well in place of Greek yogurt.
Make it crunchier: Toast the walnuts in a dry pan for 2–3 minutes before using — it deepens their flavour significantly.
Storage: Best enjoyed fresh. If you need to prep ahead, keep the yogurt base and toppings separate and assemble just before eating.
