I had a parfait like this at a hotel once and have made them at home ever since. Try a mix of blackberries raspberries and blueberries on the bottom a cup of plain lowfat yogurt a handful of golden raisins and top with granola. A great way to start the day!
I used Dee's Dark Chocolate Granola in this recipe and sliced bananas tossed with last summer's frozen blackberries. My kids thought this was the best, like getting dessert for breakfast. Happy kids=happy Mom.
Great for breakfast! I used fat free greek vanilla yogurt and used a mix of blackberries strawberries and blueberries. I topped it with a little wheat germ and honey. Very good and good for you too!
My grandson loved thsi for breakfast! I did parfait this & I just had plain yogurt so I added a tsp of vanilla to it. Almond Maple Granola (from this site) worked perfectly in this recipe. I used thawed frozen raspberries (I too sprinkled them w/ a little sugar) & I sprinkled just a little raw sugar on top to add some sparkle. Thansk Natalie!
Honey bunches of oats crushed make good granola topping for this awesome snack. That's what we already had on hand.
Even though this was an over all good dish I really have a problem with the ingredient amounts. 2 cups of yogurt was way too much for one serving and having only 8 blackberries was not enough. I also used berry flavored granola so that added a bit more depth of flavor that I don't think it would have other wise.
I make something like this all the time- only I used 1.5 cups of fresh blueberries 6 oz. of lowfat vanilla yogurt and only 1/2 cup of granola. I'll also sometimes sprinkle ground flax seeds on the granola.
I've made this before using different fruits (my favorite is sliced strawberries) and fat-free vanilla yogurt. I suggest crumbling a granola bar which can be low fat and any flavor (I use chocolate chip low fat granola bars) for the granola layer. This will help keep your ice cream cravings under control!!
I used plain greek strained yogurt and homemade almond maple granola from this site. Since the yogurt was unsweetened I thought it might need a bit of honey but it was fine as it was. Delicious!
