- 1 1/2 to 2 cups granola
Instructions
- Mix Yogurt and Honey: Add 3 tablespoons of honey to the 32 oz container of whole milk plain yogurt. Stir well until the honey is fully incorporated into the yogurt, giving it a sweet, creamy flavor.

Notes
- Use organic yogurt and fresh berries for the best flavor and nutritional value.
- Granola can be substituted with nuts or seeds for added protein and crunch.
- If using frozen berries, allow them to thaw slightly or drain excess liquid to prevent sogginess.
- Adjust honey quantity to taste, especially if using sweetened granola.
- These parfaits stay fresh in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.
