Lemon Yogurt Cheese Over Summer Fruit Recipes

Steps:

• For the lemon yogurt topping, whisk together the yogurt, lemon curd, honey, and vanilla and set aside at room temperature.
• For the fruit salad, carefully toss together the strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, sugar, and limoncello. Allow them to stand at room temperature for about 5 minutes to let the berries macerate with the sugar and liqueur. Gently fold the banana into the mixture.
• Serve bowls of fruit with a dollop of lemon yogurt on top. Top each with a sprig of fresh mint.

Steps:
