Baklava is one of the most iconic Greek sweets; Greek yogurt is one of the most iconic Greek diet ingredients. In this recipe from season 4 of My Greek Table, I combine them both to create a delicious and easy snack perfect for those of us who want to enjoy the Mediterranean diet on the go. Baklava is chock full of healthy Mediterranean diet ingredients, such as walnuts, almonds and pistachios. If you have Aegina pistachios on hand, all the better! I like to add a bit of Aegina pistachio butter to this recipe as well, since nut butters are one of the healthiest Mediterranean diet ingredients. And, of course, Greek honey, one of the world’s oldest and most delicious natural sweeteners, gets drizzled over the top!
