I am always looking for new, healthy ways to switch up my breakfast routine. Winter is all about new ways to dress my usual bowl of oats while summer is all smoothies and bowls of yogurt with fresh fruit.
I know that savory oatmeal has been a trend for a while, but it was still too hot out to create a new oatmeal bowl. I started thinking about how I could edit my yogurt to incorporate savory notes and was so excited about how these turned out!
If you’d like to go a step further with these recipes and make your yogurt from scratch then you may be interested to know that using an Instant Pot is one of the ways to make yogurt from home!
Roasted Tomato and Spinach Yogurt Bowl
I wanted to take advantage of summer vegetables in these bowls so this first one has tomatoes. I roasted up about 1/2 of a pint of cherry tomatoes with a drizzle of olive oil and a sprinkle of salt and black pepper. Once they were burst, I transferred them to a container with some chopped garlic and kept it in the fridge overnight to marinate.
The next day, I sautéed a bit of spinach and then reheated the tomatoes and chickpeas in the same pan and served it all up with some plain greek yogurt and pumpkin seeds for crunch.

Cucumber Cantaloupe Yogurt Bowl
This cucumber cantaloupe yogurt bowl is probably my favorite of the 2 since it plays with a mixture of savory and sweet. Sprinkled over top is a chili lime seasoning that I am currently putting on everything.
Trader Joe’s carries it and it is perfect for sprinkling on summer melon. You can also use Tajin which has the same salty/spicy/tart combination that is so good. In addition to cantaloupe, chopped cucumber and avocado round out this savory bowl which is drizzled in fresh squeezed lime juice and zest. Almonds add a bit of satisfying crunch to finish.
