Two-Ingredient Berry Toast Topping

There’s nothing better than the balance of sweet and savory on your plate. Try this berry toast topping the next time you’re looking for a quick breakfast or snack with fresh ingredients!

If you want to match the flavor of the toast pictured, use sourdough. This isn’t necessary though, as this topping tastes great on all sorts of toast types.

Ingredients

  • 3 medium/2 large strawberries
  • 8-10 blueberries
  • 1.5 tbsp. honey
  • 2 pieces of your toast of choice

Instructions

  1. Begin by rinsing the berries and removing stems when necessary.
  2. Grab a shallow dish or saucer and a fork to mash the berries. For strawberries, it is easier to cut the top off and push the fork straight down on the point of the berry. For blueberries, push straight down under the grated part of the fork and drag to tear the skin.
  3. Add 3/4 of a tbsp. of honey to the berries and mix into the mashed berry pulp.
  4. Spread on the toast using the back of the fork.
  5. Enjoy while the toast is still warm for the best experience!

This recipe is perfect for breakfast in a pinch and if you don’t have a large appetite in the morning. If you need more food to keep you feeling fueled until lunchtime, definitely put more on your plate.

Everyone’s breakfast looks different, but this can be your go-to pick whether you’re looking for simplicity or good taste!

Who remembers these journals? They were the very f Who remembers these journals? They were the very first product I ever made with my TUO photography on it and I still have a couple leftover 💕 I of course kept one for myself and have since filled it almost halfway full of journal entries straight from the heart

What would you use this journal for?
Alright y’all, who’s ready for my Italian herb Alright y’all, who’s ready for my Italian herb cracker recipe?! 🙋🏻‍♀️ I made these for our trip to Deep Creek as we always stop by @fireflymarketdeepcreek and they made the perfect base for all the different flavors we got 🤤

I’m in the final stages of getting this posted, so keep an eye out!
I’ve been considering an update to last year’s I’ve been considering an update to last year’s post on fall earring inspiration… these definitely need to make it on there!
There’s always something to admire in the space There’s always something to admire in the space around us. This little guy was happy buzzing around (quite loudly) while I washed my car and I couldn’t help but watch him for a while. If you’re lucky, you can catch them leaping from one flower to the next, letting their wings dance around in the wind rather than putting them to work.
In case you didn’t know, the Untamed Optimist is In case you didn’t know, the Untamed Optimist is 7 years old as of August 2023 and I couldn’t be more proud of where it’s come in all these years. I know it’s been pushed to the back burner recently as my other business has picked up, but I can’t wait to make more TUO content for you in the coming weeks ☺️ thank you for sticking with me all this time, and get ready for new posts by #theuntamedoptimist coming soon!

I’m definitely sharing my Italian herb cracker recipe with you cause it was just too damn good not to, and I’ve got a few new ideas brewing for my local readers 😉 you’ll have to stay tuned for that one though!
There’s something so special about the wildflowe There’s something so special about the wildflowers that pop up around our garden spaces. The ones that are planted by the birds and cultivated by only Mother Nature’s touch.

Some might consider them weeds, but I know they serve a purpose. Take a moment to appreciate the ‘weeds’ in your yard today.
Our Hostas are blooming and I’m feeling grateful Our Hostas are blooming and I’m feeling grateful for the long lasting blooms we get this time of year. I made a point to scatter the Hostas around the garden beds earlier this season in an effort to do two things:

Toward the end of last summer, the hostas had completely outgrown their space and weren’t living up to their potential. Dividing them filled the otherwise empty spaces in our beds whilst allowing each individual plant to grow bigger to fill it in.

While the largest section of Hostas wasn’t quite as showy as last year, our garden is already fuller and will only fill in more as the years go on. Turns out, plants and people aren’t so different if you think about it 🤔
It’s important to be present in each moment as i It’s important to be present in each moment as it comes. I try to remember this as often as I can and my garden is often the best reminder.

Each bloom changes day by day. The colors and conditions are always a sight to see and I don’t think I’ll ever not look forward to it. Nothing beats an evening stroll during harvest season.

Ask yourself, how do you ground yourself in the present? There are more opportunities than you may expect.
