My new favorite healthy treat is fruit and yogurt parfait. It has layers of fresh fruit, creamy yogurt, and crunchy granola. Is your mouth watering yet?
Fresh Fruit
Layer your glass with fresh fruit like strawberries and blueberries. Or use any fresh fruit you like. I like to slice the strawberries into thin pieces. This way each bite you can capture the full taste of the fresh fruit, yogurt, and granola.
Yogurt
There are so many different yogurts you can choose from. Flavored, low fat, sugar-free and so on. I like to use Vanilla Greek Yogurt for my Yogurt Parfait. Greek Yogurt. Greek Yogurt has less sugar and is high in protein. Whichever yogurt you decide to use, make sure you pay attention to the ingredients and nutritional information.
Granola
By adding granola to your parfait it really adds a delicious crunch that complete this recipe. You want to make sure you read the nutritional information of the granola you choose. Again, there is some granola that isn’t the best for you. So pay attention to that.
I also made Fruit and Yogurt Parfait Shooters. Perfect for a brunch, bridal or baby shower. Wait until you see how cute these are.
I hope you enjoy this healthy breakfast or healthy snack. It’s definitely one of my favorites.

Oh wow, That looks divine! This is pretty much the perfect way to eat yogurt! And I just happen to have made 1/2 a gallon of it this week (what was I thinking? haha). 🙂
Yumm-O! I don’t like yogurt very much either… gee.. what do you know, another thing you and I have in common! Lol! I’ll be giving this a try! XO
We just keep adding to the “we are so much alike” list. 😉 haha Yes, I can’t believe I have been missing out on this treat!! You must try this! xoxo
Amy, these are gorgeous and I love that they’re a healthy treat. Summer berries are so great right now, aren’t they!?
Oh thank you Bri!! Yes, I am loving the summer fruits! Thanks for stopping by!
Hey, I am thinking about making this but could i just ask How much grams is the yogurt tub and how much cups would it make around?
Hi Reta,
The Greek Yogurt I used is 180 calories for 1 cup. For the Vanilla Almond Agave Granola 1/2 cup (50 g) is 200 calories. The bowl I am using is pretty large which is great for having company over for dessert. Hope that helps some. 🙂
Yum these look so good and beautiful pics mama!
xo, Nicole
Oh thank you Nicole!! Yummy for sure!! xoxo!
Aw thank you Nicole!! They are so yummy!! 🙂
I only liked mcdonalds fruit thing ..I don’t like yogurt it’s smells sour .. then I discovered the vanilla cupcake whipped by yopliat :))) omg Soo good .. so I going to give this vanilla a try 😉
Hi Amy, yes try this. I actually don’t like yogurt, or so I thought. 🙂 I love this stuff!
Does it matter what kind of yogurt? I mean does it have to be Greek?
Not at all. Any yogurt will work. 🙂
