We often enjoy yogurt and muesli as a snack at home, so these will be making their way into my kindergartner's lunch this fall. The best part is: she can make this herself with a little guidance.
Yummy Yogurt Parfaits
- 2 cups low fat Greek yogurt
- 1 small apple grated (a box grater is fine for this)
- chopped fresh fruit or whole berries
- slivered dried apricots, peaches, pineapple
- your favorite granola or muesli
Combine yogurt with grated apple and set aside.
Start with a handful of granola in the bottom of a wide-mouthed, short glass. Then let kids layer in yogurt-apple mixture and fruit followed by more granola and so on until glass is full. Serve at once or, to take with you, make the parfaits in a sealable plastic container.
Those look prettier than ours, but Izzy has been having yogurt with frozen berries this entire past school year. That had been his daily dessert until the summer, when he somehow decided he didn't want it anymore..I am at a loss for a replacement.
