Directions
Method written by CompKitchen from the ingredient list. Not the original author's method, not kitchen-tested.
If the mixed berries are frozen, thaw them first by leaving them in a bowl in the fridge or at room temperature until soft, about 2 minutes.
Spoon the nonfat plain Greek yogurt into a serving bowl and smooth the top.
Spoon the thawed mixed berries over the yogurt, spreading them evenly.
Coarsely chop the 10 whole almonds and scatter them over the berries and yogurt.
Serve right away, or cover and chill until ready to eat.
