Hi Everyone,
Today for #SundaySupper or mission to make something for St. Patrick’s Day or something that is Spring. Well since I have a tad bit of Spring Fever and a slight spring cold, I thought I would choose Spring as my recipe challenge today!! When I think of Spring two things come to mind, hyacinth flowers and berries!!! You know I have been talking about berries for the past few weeks and this week, they looked juicy good!! So with that in mind I made a taco that can be used for breakfast or dessert!
This taco is filled with the freshest berries that Trader Joe’s carries, plump juicy strawberries, tender little blueberries and a slight tart blackberry. Muah!!! Only if you could really hear me say “Muah”. It sounds better than reading it. Anyway, I used a flour tortilla shell sprinkled with cinnamon and sugar for a little extra flavor and a tad bit of Chobani Strawberry Greek Yogurt to hold my berries in place. It’s so perfect, so Spring, so me!!
I folded my flour tortilla up and placed in my frying pan, to give it a little added crunch, plus it glues the tortilla together, so you don’t lose your precious filling. After all you don’t want one berry to escape!! The yogurt cooked fine in the frying pan, as your basically just heating up the shell, you’re not really cooking it.
I topped my Berry Taco with a dollop of Chobani Strawberry Greek Yogurt and a sprinkle of powdered sugar. I had this for my breakfast and since I used high fiber flour tortillas, and got my protein from the yogurt, I was pretty filled up most of the morning! But, you know you could also turn this into a dessert! You could drizzle some warmed chocolate syrup and a dollop of whip cream or if you are so inclined you could even serve this with just a little bit of vanilla ice cream. Ohhh, the possibilities are endless.
A sweet, juicy healthy taco made with fresh berries and strawberry greek yogurt.
Ingredients
- 1 6" flour tortilla (I used Mission Carb balance 120 calories)
- 1/4 cup Strawberry Greek Yogurt (I used Chobani Greek)
- 1/2 cup strawberries, diced
- 1/4 cup blackberries
- 1/4 cup blueberries
- 1 dash cinnamon
- 1 dash sugar
Instructions
- Brush the inside of the tortilla with water and sprinkle the cinnamon and sugar . In the center of the tortilla, add the yogurt and berries. Carefully fold one side of the tortilla to the center and then do the same to the other side. Place the seam side down in a frying pan. Cook over medium heat until the bottom is lightly brown. Carefully flip the tortilla and cook until lightly brown.
- Serve on a plate with additional greek yogurt, or powdered sugar, or you can top with chocolate syrup and whip cream. Serve for breakfast or for dessert.

I had a lot of fun creating this recipe! These are my two, no three favorite ingredients, berries, greek yogurt and taco shells. I LOVE it!!! I think I may have had to many berries today, I seem a little excited over my dish! I’m blaming Spring Fever!!!
Have a wonderful Sunday and Happy St. Patrick’s Day!

I love your idea! Tortillas are a staple in my kitchen. But I never thought of sweetening them up with fruit! Thank you for sharing! (=
(p.s. Your 3rd picture down…great shot! My favorite!)

Thanks Gloria! Tortillas are staples in my house too! I love them and I wrap everything pretty much in them.
Such a beautiful, light dessert, Jen! So scrumptious with the luscious, ripe berries! Perfect for spring…if spring would ever get to the Midwest :/

We have spring here now, but I heard cooler weather is on it’s way! No wonder why I am sick!
Just think Spring will be here before we know it!
This looks delicious and like the perfect breakfast, or dessert. Yum!!!
Thanks Bea! I couldn’t decide if it should be breakfast or dessert, either way I like it!!
Yum! What a pretty dish. I love Greek yogurt and it is a great way to add protein to this. Can’t wait to give it a try.

I know I can’t wait to go picking too! Another couple of months to go!!
My berry obsessed daughter would love it if she could eat this for dinner every night. I think I might give her a special treat this week and make it for her. (oh and me)

Yum, these look great! I can just imagine all the antioxidants available with this beautiful dessert/breakfast/snack!

I would have never though about making a sweet tortilla. I love all these ingredients too. Actually I really wish I have some tortillas that weren’t roasted tomato flavored right now because I would head into the kitchen an make one.
Love this idea! I’ve been impatiently waiting for berries to show up again. I think they’re the food I miss the most during the winter. A bowl full of berries with a splash of cream is the perfect spring dessert.

Yummm this looks so healthy and fresh! I am loving Spring!
Kristi @ My San Francisco Kitchen recently posted…Broccoli Walnut Pasta
omg…genius! i love that you heat the tortilla! so great!
That’s a wonderful dessert idea! You know I never thought of turning tacos into sweet dishes. haha, I am so ignorant. Just a look at your fresh berry tacos and I am literally yearning for it! =P
So pretty, and what a fun idea! Great photos too… can’t wait to try this on!
it’s like crepes, with a twist! Love this!
Oooh I want this for breakfast!
Wanted to make this, but didn’t have yogurt…. I used lowfat spreadable cream cheese instead ( I also used a packet of Truvia instead of sugar – can’t believe I made it healthy….. lol) YUMMY TO MY TUMMY!!!! Kudo’s for the idea my friend!!
mmm I love fruit! I really love those blackberries!! I would totally love this taco!!
