Greek Yogurt with Granola and Fruit

Why you will love this

These Greek yogurt bowls are one of my favorite breakfasts. They are loaded with wholesome ingredients which make them as satisfying as they are delicious.

This is really more a method than a recipe. There's no cooking involved, unless you prefer to make homemade granola.

Layer yogurt with fruit, such as mixed berries, something crunchy like granola or nuts, and finish with a touch of honey for sweetness.

I'm sharing lots of ideas for yogurt parfait toppings plus tips so you can create the most delicious yogurt bowls.

Ingredients

• Greek yogurt - Start with plain yogurt as a base. My favorite variety/brand is Fage Total Greek yogurt.
• Granola - Use your favorite variety. Store-bought or homemade are both delicious. I love Nature Valley Crunchy granola - both oats and dark chocolate and oats and honey flavors. If you prefer homemade, try this granola topping recipe.
• Fruit - I love using an assortment of berries.
• Flavor/sweeteners - Vanilla extract and honey add flavor and a touch of sweetness.
