This is perfect as an appetizer for two. However, If you are super hungry, eat it alone!
Don’t forget some warm, crusty bread!
One thing is for sure: I always have a container of yogurt, some tomatoes, and olive oil. If you have the basics, other ingredients are compromisable. I would serve this recipe with Ditalini with Peas and Parmesan (Pasta e Piselli).
What I love About This Flavored Greek Yogurt
- The fresh herbs and marinated tomatoes create a delicious, vibrant flavor combination.
- They are quick and easy to prepare, perfect for a hassle-free meal or snack.
- It’s a healthy option packed with nutrients and low in calories.
The Ingredients You Will Need
Greek Yogurt— use full fat for optimal creaminess. Regular whole milk yogurt will be too runny for this recipe.
Oregano—will add herbiness and is the go-to of Mediterranean flavors.
Tomatoes—I like grape or cherry tomatoes because they are a bit sweeter.
Olive oil—use a lovely, buttery, high-quality olive oil because it will be a part of the flavor component of this recipe.
Pomegranate molasses—adds sweetness and the perfect tang.
Garlic—this gives the dish delicious flavor.
Basil—because basil and tomatoes are best friends.
