If you get both blue and straw-berries, this is wonderful to make with them. The granola is easy to make, but you have to be patient when making it. The parfaits can be made ahead and brought out at the last minute.
INGREDIENTS:
1 basket cleaned blueberries
1 basket cleaned and trimmed strawberries, cut into ¼-inch wedges
4 cups granola
4 cups vanilla or plain yogurt, or as needed
4 tall 12-16 ounce glasses
4 long handled spoons
METHOD:
Place some granola in the bottom of each glass, then add an inch of berries. Layer on some yogurt. Repeat this on up the glasses, evenly portioning out the ingredients. Save a few berries for garnish upon serving, but finish with a layer of granola, stopping a ½-inch from the rim of the glass so everything doesn’t spill out when you insert a spoon.
Serve right away with the garnish berries on top or seal with plastic wrap for later and keep cold.
If you wish, you can skip the yogurt, layer in the berries and granola, and when you serve these, serve with a pitcher of cream or milk.
Serves: 4
