This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Amherst chapter and does not reflect the views of Her Campus.

This is incredibly easy to make, and you can eat it for any meal.  The plain Val yogurt is pretty tasteless by itself, but you can make it delicious with a few additions.  You can make yogurt salad into a breakfast or a dessert (it’s a great alternative to that huge cone of Fro Yo you were planning on having).  Plus it’s a great way to get your daily dose of Calcium, which women are often running low on.  
 
–Fill a bowl with plain yogurt from the salad bar
–Add jam (or honey if you’re not a jam person)
–Add a generous amount of dried cranberries (so you feel like you’re being healthy)
–Add a spoonful of brown sugar (if you have a crazy sweet tooth)
–Put sprinkles on top (if you’re feeling really adventurous)
 
And enjoy!
