    This recipe is a harmonious blend of ancient and modern culinary traditions. The quinoa, a staple food of the Incan civilization, is packed with protein and fiber. Berries, a superfood revered in many cultures, are rich in antioxidants. Greek yogurt, a cornerstone of Mediterranean cuisine, is a creamy and probiotic-rich dairy product. Honey, a natural sweetener used for centuries, adds a touch of sweetness and health benefits.
