Low Fat Yogurt-Granola Parfait

Low Fat Yogurt-Granola Parfait

Fiona Haynes
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.

Prep Time: 10 minutes

Total Time: 10 minutes

Ingredients:

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

Preparation:

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.

Amazing!, Member Sandrat954

I made this for me and my girlfriend and she thought it was awesome! I kept all ingredients as is, except when I sliced the strawberries I sprinkled a little sugar on them and let them sit awhile to suck up the sweetness. Other than that, everything was kept the same and it was great! I used a brand of granola called ""Bear Naked."" The original version.
