Greek Yogurt and Berry Parfait
Greek Yogurt and Berry Parfait is a delicious and healthy breakfast or snack. It's made with layers of plain Greek yogurt, mixed berries, granola, and honey. The yogurt provides protein and calcium, the berries provide antioxidants and fiber, the granola provides complex carbohydrates and fiber, and the honey provides a touch of sweetness. This parfait is a great way to start your day or refuel after a workout.
I first had this parfait at a brunch spot in New York City. I was immediately hooked on the combination of the creamy yogurt, the tart berries, the crunchy granola, and the sweet honey. I started making it at home, and it quickly became one of my favorite breakfasts. I've experimented with different variations over the years, but this is the recipe that I always come back to. It's simple to make, and it's always delicious.
