I think we're all familiar with that sweet, delicious taste of fruit on the bottom of yogurt cups or drizzling honey and granola on top of our Greek yogurt.

I will personally never turn down a vanilla yogurt studded with fresh blueberries, but sometimes I crave a savory start to the day and don't want to make eggs or toast, so I pull together this little dish! It's ready in minutes and is a high-protein breakfast that will satiate you!

Ingredients

Here are the simple ingredients you'll need to make this savory yogurt bowl.

Olive oil, Greek yogurt, Everything bagel seasoning, sliced cucumbers, slices tomatoes, a halved hardboiled eggs, and crackers.
  • Greek Yogurt - provides the creamy base for this dish. You can substitute for plain yogurt as well.
  • Cherry Tomatoes - a bright and refreshing pop of color and flavor in this dish. You can use grape tomatoes as well, or dice larger tomatoes (like Roma tomatoes) into smaller pieces.
  • Persian Cucumber - these small cucumbers might also be labeled mini-cucumbers or Lebanese cucumbers. You can use ¼ of an English cucumber if you can't find smaller cucumbers, though.
  • Hardboiled Egg - you can purchase already hardboiled eggs at most grocery stores.
  • Extra Virgin Olive Oil - this provides a wonderful richness to the yogurt.
  • Everything Bagel Seasoning - the essential seasonings for the yogurt - this blend contains sesame seeds, poppy seeds, onion flakes, sea salt, and garlic powder.
  • Whole Wheat Crackers or Pita Chips - perfect for dipping, any of your favorite crackers or whole wheat pita chips will work!

Instructions

Spoon the yogurt into a bowl and use the back of a spoon to spread it into a swirl. Pour the olive oil over the yogurt and top with the bagel seasoning.

I am a fan of za'atar as well and would vote for this recipe (mideastfood.about.com/od/middleeasternspicesherbs/r/zaatar.htm) which contains oregano and sesame seeds. An interesting article on the spice is was published in the Guardian (https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2016/feb/06/zaatar-recipes-bread-beans-mushrooms-yotam-ottolenghi).
