Snack attack: healthy fruit dip

Guys — brace yourselves. It’s time for one of those super rare (but always great) food posts. As you may know, I love food, but I’m not so great at making it. But when I was living alone one summer during my college years I did do a fair share of cooking and baking for myself (because a girl can only afford so much Chinese takeout). Though not actually baking, this healthy fruit dip was one of my favorite finds on Pinterest, and I had totally forgotten about it until recently. I found it during one of my health food kicks and tweaked it a little bit to fit my taste. It’s so simple to make, and it’s the perfect healthy snack when you’re craving something sweet. I hope you enjoy it, too!

Ingredients:

1 (6-oz) container nonfat vanilla or plain Greek yogurt

1 tbsp. peanut butter (I like to use the whipped version because it has fewer calories and is easier to stir, but you'll want to use about 1 1/2 tbsp. if you choose to use it.)

1/2 tbsp. honey (can use more for a sweeter taste)

1/8 tsp. cinnamon

Directions:

Put all the ingredients in a bowl and stir until they are all mixed in well — make sure to get all the lumps out. Serve with fruit (strawberries and bananas are my favorites!) and store it in the fridge.

Yep, it’s that easy. How do I not make this every single day?! As you can see, I bought apples, bananas and strawberries to go with mine — and I totally lucked out because I happened to buy the freshest, most delicious strawberries ever. But grapes or graham crackers would be great with it too. 

What are your favorite healthy treats in the summer?
