Ingredients
- 1 cup Plain Greek Yogurt
- 1/2 cup Instant Granola

Layering the Parfait
In a glass or bowl, start with a layer of yogurt. Spoon about half of the yogurt into the bottom.
Adding Granola
Sprinkle half of the instant granola over the yogurt layer. This will provide a nice crunch.
Berry Delight
Add half of the mixed berries on top of the granola. The berries add sweetness and antioxidants.
Repeating the Layers
Repeat the layers: yogurt, granola, and berries. Finish with a final layer of berries on top for presentation.
Sweeten (Optional)
Drizzle honey or maple syrup over the parfait, if desired. Adjust the amount to your preference. This step can be skipped if you prefer a less sweet option.
