Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup non-fat plain Greek yogurt
- 1/2 cup fresh mixed berries (blueberries, raspberries, or strawberries)
- 2 tablespoons low-sugar granola
- 1 teaspoon honey or a few drops of liquid stevia (optional)
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds or hemp hearts
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Step 1: Prepare the Yogurt Base. In a small mixing bowl, combine the plain Greek yogurt with the vanilla extract and your choice of sweetener. Whisk them together until the mixture is smooth and fragrant. If you prefer a thicker consistency, keep the yogurt chilled right until this moment.
- Step 2: Layer the Fruit and Seeds. Find a mason jar or a tall glass. Spoon half of the sweetened yogurt into the bottom of the container. Add a layer of fresh berries followed by a sprinkle of chia seeds. These seeds add a wonderful texture and a healthy dose of Omega-3 fatty acids.
- Step 3: Assemble and Top. Add the remaining yogurt on top of the fruit layer. Finish the parfait by adding the rest of the berries. If you are eating this immediately, sprinkle the granola on top for maximum crunch. If you are making this ahead of time, save the granola in a separate small container to keep it from getting soggy.
