The parfait has a long and storied history, dating back to the 19th century. It is believed to have originated in France, where it was served as a cold dessert made with layers of fruit, ice cream, and whipped cream. Over time, the parfait evolved into a more breakfast-friendly dish, with layers of yogurt, granola, and fruit. This version from [Insert Chef's Name] is a modern take on the classic parfait, with a few key twists. The use of Greek yogurt provides a protein-rich base, while the honey adds a touch of sweetness.
