Parfaits are so versatile and can be prepared in numerous ways as per the available ingredients or the kind of mood you are in! :) They are healthy, satisfying and quick breakfast options even on engaged weekday mornings.



In Summers, I want to make as many recipes as I can with Mangoes before the season is over. I tried Mango Crisp, Mango Rabri, Shakes etc. and many more are on my to-do list!



Therefore, there are Mangoes in today's recipe but you can also use the fruit of your choice to layer the Yogurt and Granola. I have prepared Mango Yogurt for this recipe. If you are in hurry, you can also use plain Yogurt like I do sometimes on a hustled morning! I layer the Yogurt, Granola and the Fruit on top of each other in that sequence and voila, the healthy and filling breakfast is ready in no time.

I recommend to try out this yummy and healthy breakfast recipe with the homemade Granola, the recipe of which I shared in the last post.
