This one is barely a recipe, but it earns its keep. Just a few ingredients – strawberries, lemon, sugar and skyr – stirred together and left to do their thing. The lemon brings brightness, the strawberries soften and release their juice, and the skyr folds through into something cool, thick and quietly satisfying. Around 19g of protein a serving, no faff, and it lasts for days.
