Meal Prep Greek Yogurt Parfaits with Granola and Fruit
Description
This parfait recipe involves layering Greek yogurt with fresh diced mango and blueberries divided evenly into four containers. The yogurt provides a creamy protein-rich base, while the fruit adds sweet, fresh, and juicy notes. The method includes cooking the parfait ingredients just enough to maintain bright fruit flavors without sogginess.
Granola is stored separately to retain its crispness when ready to eat. This allows the texture contrast between creamy and crunchy to remain intact. The recipe emphasizes customization using different fruits, yogurt types, or sweetness levels to suit dietary preferences.
Perfect for meal prep, these parfaits can be refrigerated for 4 to 5 days. Adjustments for dairy-free, lower-carb, higher-fat, or higher-protein options can be made by changing yogurt types, fruit choices, sweeteners, or add-ins like nut butters or protein powder.
Ingredients
- 4 cups Greek yogurt divided, vanilla, nonfat
- 1 cup Mango divided, diced
- 1 cup blueberries divided
- 1 cup granola divided - or granola of choice, honey almond
Instructions
- To four mason jars or containers of choice, layer the yogurt and fruit (1 cup of yogurt, 1/4 cup mango, 1/4 cup blueberries each).
- Add the granola to a separate container or ziploc bag to add to the parfaits when ready to eat (so it stays crunchy!)
- Store parfaits in the refrigerator for 4-5 days. Granola can be stored in the fridge or at room temperature.
Notes
- Granola is kept separate from the yogurt and fruit to maintain its crunch until serving.
- The parfaits can be customized for dairy-free, lower-carb, higher-fat, or higher-protein needs by adjusting ingredients accordingly.
- Store refrigerated and consume within 4 to 5 days for best freshness.
