  • 2 cups of thick nonfat yoghurt, plain or flavoured
  • 4 passionfruit
  • 1 1/2 cup frozen berries
  • Powdered Sweetener (like Splenda)
  • cinnamon
  • * 4 mini meringue nests (0.5-1pt each depending on brand).
    Alternatively, use meringue kisses.
  • 1/2 punet of strawberries to decorate

Method:

Put about a cup of yoghurt in glass bowl, top with good handful of frozen berries, pulp of 2 passionfruit and some powdered sweetner to equivilent sweetness of a few TB, sprinkle with cinnamon.
Repeat yoghurt and fruit layer.
Cover and fridge for about 20-30 mins to let flavours develop and berries thaw.
Put a mini meringue shell in serving bowl and smash, top with spoonfuls of the yoghurt and fruit mix.
Top with a sliced strawberry.

On Core you'll need to count the meringue at 0.5-1 pt each depending on brand

Oh Dee this is amazing. I made the Eton Mess recipe after seeing Karen Mantini's version last weekend in the SMH. Had to drive for miles to get some of the Persian Fairy Floss. It was just so devine, but high in points. Worth saving points to have the "real McCoy" I say.
