How To Make A Yoghurt Parfait

Yoghurt parfaits for breakfast anybody? Thanks to cooking school, I recently discovered this beauty called a “parfait ” and not only that, I found out that I could make it with plain old yoghurt. Well that is a plus for me, considering the fact that I never really do anything different with yoghurt and sometimes it actually goes bad in my fridge cause’ I forget it’s even there after I buy it.   

Well, as we say in Naija,”tory done change”.After making this yoghurt parfait recipe, I’ve bought yogurt twice in a week and actually finished it long before the expiration date.I and Tgwe (my Mr) had it for breakfast and it’s now a new addition to our breakfast menu.

What makes the yoghurt parfait so alluring apart from the fact that it’s really easy to make is also the combination and texture of the ingredients in it. The smoothness of the yogurt complements the crunchy granola/nuts/cereal, and the flavours and juices of the fruit as well all go together to give a well rounded tasting experience. Oh, and the addition of scent leaves a.k.a. basil took the flavour to another level.

So if you willing and looking to add a new item to your menu,then this recipe is for you.Some extra points of attraction include:

• It’s easy and quick to prepare and doesn’t require any cooking technique.
