Note: if fresh strawberries aren’t available, you can use frozen or make a homemade strawberry compote by simmering 1 cup of frozen strawberries with a ¼ cup of water and a teaspoon of honey until reduced.
What's Great About It:
With only a five-minute prep time, this parfait is a quick, easy and healthy weekday breakfast option. Strawberries can easily be swapped out for other seasonal fruit and for an extra boost of fibre and flavour, try swapping regular oats for our homemade granola mix recipe.
