Playing with food for 30 days - day 12
Yummy breakfast parfaits are so delicious and super easy to make. The amazing thing about parfaits is the versatility, like salads you can mix any combination of ingredients you like.

Parfaits are balanced nutritious breakfast when using greek yogurt as it had more protein than normal yogurt. Have ever noticed how much thicker greek yogurt is compared to standard yogurt? This is because the production process greek yogurt goes through differs from the creation of standard yogurt. In greek yogurt a lot of the extra liquids are removed which results in a much denser protein rich product.
This morning I chopped up some tasty tropical fruits banana, mango, pineapple, watermelon and blueberries as my fruit base and then added **natural (plain) 2% greek yogurt ** on top.
If you are watching your health is is a good idea to always watch your fat content in yogurt. If you go 0% fat you may be trading your fat for sugar, so always read the label before you buy. I was astonished by the difference in sugar content in yogurt, it's not all the same. Depending on the brand and fat content of the yogurt you buy if you look at the labels you will find a huge difference in the added sugar! Always read your labels!!
Another thing I always look for when buying packaged food is number of ingredients. I like the list to be short and easy to read. If there are words I can't pronounce or ingredients I am unfamiliar with I don't like to put that *"food" *into my body.
To finish the parfait I topped it off with my favorite granola! I also added hemp seeds today because they are super nutritious and have lots of omega 3 and omega 6.
