- Expert Tips:
- The nutrition facts are based on a serving of 1/2 of each yogurt, 3 tbsps of granola, 1/2 of fruit (berries), 1/4 tsp chia seed and 1 tsp of nuts and 1/2 tsp honey.
- Make signs. Label your ingredients as needed (e.g. plain yogurt vs vanilla yogurt) to help your guests make good decisions.
- Know your group. Food allergies and preferences are always good to know in advance. If you have a vegan in attendance, you might want to offer a dairy-free yogurt option. If you have a celiac, you'll want to stick to gluten-free granola.
- Shop in season. In-season fruits not only taste better, but they're often much cheaper. And don't forget to check your farmer's market! The prices are usually comparable to grocery stores, the quality is typically superior, AND you get to support your local economy.
- Keep it food safe. When you're setting up your yogurt buffet, consider placing the serving dishes in slightly larger containers of ice water to maintain a healthy temperature for the yogurt.
