After my trip to San Francisco and a visit to the Frog Hollow Farm Cafe, I was inspired to eat more yogurt and fresh fruit. I’ve made several of these parfaits recently and can’t seem to have enough. Maybe its the summer heat or the sweetness of the fruit’s season. Plus, they are simple to make. Breakfast, lunch, dinner, or dessert, these parfaits are a great summer treat.

I had the idea of putting preserves on my yogurt after have a yogurt cup at Gourmandise Bakery in downtown Salt Lake City. They top their fresh made yogurt with raspberry jam then fruit and toasted almonds. Their yogurt cups are amazing if you want to buy one locally instead of making one at home.

I'm on the same wave lenght as you are Becky! I made granola last night and had my Greek yogurt, blueberry parfait this morning 🙂
Must be the time of year or just how hot it has been but fruit and yogurt has been sounding so good lately! I have eaten this for several meals recently.
I think I'm the only one who hasn't eaten Greek yogurt. I need to buy some and whip up one of these yummy parfaits.
