Ingredients

3 cups low-fat vanilla yogurt
2 cups fresh blueberries
1 1/2 teaspoons freshly grated lemon zest
3 tablespoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons sugar

Preparation

Set a fine-mesh stainless-steel sieve over a bowl. Spoon in yogurt and let drain in the refrigerator until reduced to 1 cup, about 1 hour.
Meanwhile, combine blueberries, lemon zest, lemon juice and sugar in a saucepan. Stir over medium heat until the berries just begin to break down, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and refrigerate.
Just before serving, add the drained yogurt to the cooled berries and stir to combine.
