Layered Yogurt Fruit Parfait

# What You'll Need:

01 - 1 cup plain or vanilla Greek yogurt

02 - 1/2 cup sliced fresh strawberries

03 - 1/2 cup fresh blueberries

04 - 1 small banana, sliced

05 - 1/2 small kiwi, diced (optional)

06 - 1/2 cup granola (nut-free or gluten-free if preferred)

07 - 1 tablespoon chopped nuts such as almonds or walnuts (optional)

08 - 1 to 2 teaspoons honey or maple syrup

01 - Wash, hull, peel, and slice the fruit as needed before assembling.

02 - Spoon 2 tablespoons of Greek yogurt into the bottom of each serving glass or jar.

03 - Top the yogurt with a mixture of strawberries, blueberries, banana, and kiwi pieces.

04 - Distribute 2 tablespoons of granola evenly over the fruit layer in each cup.

05 - Continue layering yogurt, fruit, and granola until glasses are filled to the top.

06 - Drizzle honey or maple syrup on top if desired and garnish with chopped nuts or extra berries. Serve immediately.

01 -

It takes less than ten minutes and you can eat it straight from the jar on your way out the door.
Every spoonful gives you something different—creamy yogurt, juicy fruit, that satisfying crunch from the granola.
You can change the fruit and toppings every time so it never gets boring.

02 -

If you layer the parfait the night before, the granola will turn soggy, so pack it separately and add it just before eating.
Greek yogurt is much thicker than regular yogurt and won't make the layers runny, so don't swap it for the thin stuff unless you want a mess.
Slice the banana at the last minute or toss it in a little lemon juice, otherwise it'll turn brown and look sad by the time you sit down.

03 -

Toast your granola in a dry pan for two minutes before layering and it'll smell incredible and taste even crunchier.
If your yogurt is too thick, stir in a teaspoon of milk or a splash of orange juice to loosen it just enough to spread easily.
Layer the fruit in a pattern—berries on one side, banana on the other—so every spoonful has a little contrast.
