Greek Yogurt Fruit Parfait
Choose puffed brown rice cereal instead of granola for a skinnier version of a typical parfait. The puffed rice is a fun exchange to granola and I like it much better. Yummy as a breakfast or healthy dessert.

Ingredients:
1/2 cup | fat-free plain greek yogurt |
3/4 cup | sliced mixed plums, peaches, and nectarine |
1/2 cup | puffed rice cereal |
1 tablespoon | almonds, toasted and chopped |
1 tablespoon | walnuts, toasted and chopped |
1 tablespoon | ground flaxseed |
1 tablespoon | maple syrup, agave nectar, or honey |
Directions:
In a tall 4-cup container or jar, layer half of the yogurt, fruit, cereal, nuts, flaxseed, and syrup. Repeat with the remaining half of ingredients, ending with syrup. (If you prefer a crunchy parfait, pack cereal separately to add right before eating.) Refrigerate up to 5 hours.
