Fruit And Yogurt Parfait Recipe – Parfait Recipes

Parfait Recipe – When my friend Shalini told me about this recipe,I had no clue of What is parfait,how it is made,how it tastes .Immediately I browsed for the recipe & images.I found in Wikipedia that Parfait is a type of food that is eaten as a dessert or breakfast in United States. It is a French word that means perfect.In the United States, parfait refers to either the traditional French-style dessert or to a popular variant, the American parfait, made by layering parfait cream, ice cream, and/or flavored gelatins in a tall, clear parfait glass, and topping the creation with whipped cream, fresh or canned fruit.In Canada and the United States, parfaits may also be made by using greek yogurt layered with granola, nuts or fresh fruits, such as peaches, strawberries or blueberries.I loved the simplicity of this recipe and tried it for our Sunday breakfast using strawberry flavored yoghurt layered with muesli & fresh fruits.It came out very colorful and we loved its taste too.So I thought of sharing this easy dessert cum breakfast recipe for you to try if you are bored with our usual Cereals with milk combo.Its so healthy &a tummy filling recipe.After tasting this strawberry yogurt parfait,I wish to try all the variants of parfait recipe and taste it.Ok,Lets see how to make this easy and healthy fruit yogurt parfait recipe.Vegans,please replace yogurt with non-dairy yogurt.Actual recipe calls for granola,but I used muesli here.It was super crunchy to taste !
