4th of July Red, White and Blue Yogurt Parfait

Today is National Strawberry Parfait Day - who knew? There is a day for everything now and I am so pleased that I’ve been identified by the Georgia Fruit and Vegetable Growers Association as someone who not only supports locally grown fruit and produce but I also write about it. I was asked to submit the inaugural post for their blog Produce Bites! I created a recipe that is right on time for National Strawberry Parfait Day and the 4th of July. 

Red White & Blue Parfait

Ingredients

1 cup strawberries

1 cup blueberries

1 cup blackberries

32 oz. Vanilla Greek Yogurt

Method

Clean berries by rinsing under cool water and drying with paper towel.

Slice strawberries thickly.

Placing a layer of Greek yogurt in the bottom of a parfait cup or martini glass.

Follow with a layer of strawberries.

Add a layer of Greek yogurt, add blueberries, and finally add an additional layer of yogurt and blackberries.

Depending on the size of the container, you may repeat.

End with a final layer of yogurt and top with strawberries in the shape of a star.

Decorate the border with blueberries.
