# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • You actually sleep in and still have a gourmet breakfast waiting, no morning scramble required.
  • The creamy yogurt base keeps everything soft while the pistachios stay surprisingly crunchy even after sitting overnight.
  • It tastes like dessert but gives you sustained energy that carries you through the afternoon without the crash.
02 -
  • Don't skip stirring the base before dividing it into jars, or you'll end up with a layer of liquid at the bottom and dry oats floating on top.
  • The pistachios on top will absorb a tiny bit of moisture overnight, so if you want them to stay maximally crunchy, consider adding them fresh in the morning instead.
03 -
  • Chill your jars before assembling if you want everything to taste extra refreshing, and use Greek yogurt that's close to its expiration date—the fresher the tang, the better the final balance.
  • Buy strawberries a day or two before you plan to make these so they're at peak sweetness, and consider adding a squeeze of lemon juice to the honey drizzle for brightness that cuts through the richness.
