    How to Make Just Peachy Bowls

    These gorgeous “bowls” look so impressive, but they’re really easy to prepare. You’ll actually be making your own flavored greek yogurt, which is the best way to create the flavor and sweetness level just right for you. When dolloped over juicy peaches, the result is simply divine—especially when the fruit is at its peak in the spring or summer. Grilling the peaches makes this dessert uniquely sweet and smoky, but if you’re looking for an even quicker dessert, you can skip the grill and leave the peaches raw.
