Berry Heart Parfaits
This yummy treat is light, naturally sweetened and can be served not only for breakfast, but any time of the day. A parfait made with your favorite flavor of yogurt – we chose plain Greek yogurt as it is low in sugar and high in protein.
Layer in some tasty blueberries or other fruits of your choice. A cutout of a strawberry heart placed on top is the final, darling touch. Optional: sprinkle granola on top to really spice it up, adding crunch and texture!
