Low Fat Yogurt-Granola Parfait

This is less a recipe and more a way to prepare a nutritious, low fat, high-energy breakfast. I use strawberries and bananas with my yogurt and low fat granola, but you can use any fruit that takes your fancy, and embellish it with a tablespoon of heart-healthy sliced almonds or chooped walnuts, or a sprinkling of wheatgerm.

• 1 cup sliced strawberries
• 1 large sliced banana
• 2 cups low fat vanilla or strawberry yogurt
• 2 cups low fat granola

In four glasses or goblets, alternately layer strawberries, yogurt, granola, and banana, finishing with a light sprinkling of granola on top, with a few slivers of strawberry for garnish. Chill or eat immediately. Serves 4.
