Ever find yourself in a bit of a midday slump where it’s not quite quitting time and you need a bit of a bite to pick yourself up? In the morning, do you find yourself racing off to the 9to9 and not in the mood for a heavy breakfast but want something flavorful with a bit of a protein kick? I have the perfect bite for you – this Lemon Berry Yogurt Crunch Parfait.
I have a bit of an obsession with lemon curd. It’s sweet and tart and when it’s paired with berries, it’s heaven on a spoon. I would get this yogurt cup from a coffee house that had a bit of lemon curd and berries with a hint of granola but at $4 a pop plus coffee, well, my wallet threatened an intervention.
These Lemon Berry Yogurt Crunch Parfaits were so simple to put together. Layer a bit of crunchy Nature Valley Oats ‘n Honey Granola followed by alternating layers of Yoplait Vanilla Greek Yogurt, fresh strawberry jam and sweetly tart lemon curd with more granola interspersed between for texture and you have the perfect sweet treat. I use small 6 ounce jars so it is just the right amount to stave off that midday slump. You could either swirl all the layers together or use the spoon to pull through the layers bit by bit. The best thing is this recipe can be customized to your tastes and your preferences.
