High Protein Fruit & Yogurt Parfait

Great for breakfast, a snack between meals or even as dessert!

The kids came home super hungry today (must of burned a lot of energy!) and instead of letting them just grab a fruit or giving them some cheese with crackers, I took the time to make them a little treat. 

ParfaitIngredients

Ingredients:

  • 1/3 cup Wholesome Hemp Granola or 1/3 cup All Bran Buds.
  • 1/2 cup Liberte  0% Fat Plain Greek Yogurt
  • 1/2 small Banana
  • 1/2 cup organic sliced Strawberries and Blueberries
  • 1 tbsp Chia Seeds
  • 1 tbsp Raw Organic Honey

Directions:

Thoroughly wash your strawberries and blueberries.  Slice your strawberries and the banana and simply layer your ingredients however you like in a tall fluted glass. That’s it! Now go ahead and shovel…ahem, I mean, slowly enjoy your parfait! 😉

Why is this a good-for-you parfait?

  1. Fruit provide our bodies with essential vitamins, minerals and fibre.
  2. Plain Greek yogurt has no sugar, starches or fillers and gives you a huge protein boost!
  3. Hemp hearts are a complete protein, reduce inflammation, reduce PMS symptoms, lower blood pressure, are rich in vitamin E and naturally increase your energy levels!
  4. Chia seeds are high in fibre, they naturally keep your body hydrated, boost energy, control blood sugar, lower cholesterol, curb cravings, are a source of protein and rich in omega-3!
  5. Raw organic honey contains large amounts of friendly bacteria, is antiviral, anti-fungal and antibacterial.  Great for a sore throat, soothing a cough or simply to naturally sweeten things up!
