Ingredients:
- 2 cups Greek yogurt
- 1 cup mixed fresh berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)
- 1/2 cup granola
- 2 tablespoons honey (optional)
- Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional)
Instructions:
- Start by preparing your ingredients. Rinse the fresh berries under cold water and pat them dry with a paper towel. If using strawberries, slice them into smaller pieces for easier layering.
- In a glass or bowl, add a layer of Greek yogurt at the bottom. Aim for about 1/2 cup of yogurt to create a solid base for your parfait.
- Next, add a layer of mixed fresh berries on top of the yogurt. You can use a combination of blueberries, raspberries, and sliced strawberries for a colorful presentation.
- Sprinkle a layer of granola over the berries, adding a delightful crunch to your parfait. Use about 1/4 cup of granola for this layer, adjusting based on your preference for texture.
- Repeat the layers by adding another 1/2 cup of Greek yogurt, followed by more berries and granola until you reach the top of your glass or bowl. Finish with a final layer of berries for a beautiful presentation.
- If desired, drizzle honey over the top layer of berries for added sweetness and garnish with fresh mint leaves. Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to an hour before enjoying.
Extra Tips:
Feel free to mix up the flavors by using flavored Greek yogurt, such as vanilla or honey, for an added depth of taste. You can also experiment with different fruits like bananas or peaches, depending on the season.
If you’re preparing this for meal prep, keep the granola separate until you’re ready to eat to maintain its crunchiness.
Enjoy your healthy and satisfying parfait!
