Greek Yogurt Parfait with Fresh Berries

1.Wash all fresh berries thoroughly and pat dry with paper towels.

2.In a medium bowl, gently mix the Greek yogurt with honey or maple syrup if using, to add a touch of natural sweetness.

3.Take two clear serving glasses or bowls for layering.

4.Start by spooning about 1/4 cup of the sweetened Greek yogurt into the bottom of each glass.

5.Add a layer of mixed berries (approximately 1/4 cup of strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries) over the yogurt in each glass.

6.Sprinkle a teaspoon of chia seeds evenly over the berries in each glass for added fiber and omega-3 benefits.

7.Add another 1/4 cup of Greek yogurt on top of the berries and chia seeds, smoothing the surface gently.

8.Top with another layer of mixed berries (about 1/4 cup) to create a colorful, vibrant finish.

9.If desired, sprinkle 2 tablespoons of low-fat granola evenly over the top layer for a satisfying crunch.

10.Garnish each parfait with a fresh mint leaf for a refreshing aroma and visual appeal.

11.Serve immediately to enjoy the fresh textures and flavors, or refrigerate for up to 2 hours if preparing ahead.
