A five-minute evening bowl that leans on the quiet minerals of sleep: thick Greek yogurt topped with cherries, toasted almonds and pumpkin seeds. Sweet enough to feel like pudding, light enough not to sit heavy before bed.
Ingredients
- 200g Greek yogurt
- 100g cherries, pitted
- 1 tbsp pumpkin seeds
- 1 tbsp almonds, roughly chopped
- A drizzle of honey, optional
Method
- Spoon the Greek yogurt into two bowls.
- Toast the pumpkin seeds and almonds in a dry pan for a minute until fragrant.
- Top the yogurt with the cherries, seeds and nuts, and finish with a little honey if you like.
Why it works
Magnesium is the thread here — pumpkin seeds and almonds are two of the richest everyday sources, and magnesium helps quiet nerve activity as the day winds down. The Greek yogurt adds slow-release casein protein and calcium for bone health, while cherries bring a naturally sweet finish without a heavy sugar load.
