Blueberries are a massive thing in my house and we usually have loads of them around because Little Man loves them – they even get eaten with his fish fingers! This is a great way to use them in a proper recipe.

INGREDIENTS
SERVES: 4
150g blueberries
Finely grated zest of ½ lemon
1 vanilla pod, split and seeds scraped
40ml water
2 tsp granulated sweetener
450g lemon Greek-style yoghurt (0% fat)
3 reduced-calorie rich tea biscuits (26g)
1 tsp cornflour, mixed with 1 tsp water
½ ready-made individual meringue (18g), lightly crushed
METHOD
1: Put the blueberries into a small saucepan with the lemon zest, vanilla seeds, water and sweetener. Bring to a simmer over a medium-high heat and let simmer for 5 minutes.
2: Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk the lemon yoghurt until smooth. Crumble the biscuits roughly into a separate bowl.
3: Once the blueberries have cooked down, stir in the cornflour paste and cook, stirring, until thickened. Remove from the heat and leave to cool.
4: When the blueberries have cooled completely, add them to the lemon yoghurt and mix lightly until swirled through.
5: Put a generous spoonful of the blueberry yoghurt into each of 4 serving glasses (150ml capacity) and layer the crumbled biscuits on top. Spoon on the remaining yoghurt mixture, top with the crushed meringue and serve immediately.
