Ingredients
  

For the Parfaits:

2 cups creamy Greek yogurt (choose plain or vanilla flavor)

1 cup your favorite granola blend

1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced

1 cup ripe peaches, diced (or substitute with mango for a tropical twist)

1 banana, sliced

1 cup blueberries

2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (optional, to enhance sweetness)

Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional)

For the Fruit Sauce (optional):

½ cup fresh strawberries

1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup

Squeeze of fresh lemon juice

Instructions
 

Prepare the Fruit Sauce (Optional):

    - In a blender or food processor, combine the ½ cup of fresh strawberries with the honey (or maple syrup) and a squeeze of lemon juice.

      - Blend until the mixture is smooth, adjusting the sweetness to your taste. Once blended, set aside the fruit sauce.

        Layer the Parfaits:

          - In a tall glass or parfait cup, spoon in about ¼ cup of Greek yogurt to create the first layer.

            - Follow the yogurt with approximately 2 tablespoons of granola, spreading it evenly atop the yogurt.

              - Next, add a colorful layer of mixed fruits, beginning with the sliced strawberries, then the diced peaches (or mango), and finally a sprinkle of blueberries.

                - If using, drizzle a bit of the prepared fruit sauce over the fruit layer for added flavor.

                  Repeat the Layers:

                    - Continue layering the parfait by repeating the process until your glass is filled; aim for 2-3 layers for a beautiful presentation.

                      - Conclude with a generous scoop of yogurt on top and finish off with a final sprinkle of granola for added crunch.

                        - For garnish, place the sliced banana on top and, if desired, drizzle some additional honey or maple syrup for extra sweetness.

                          Garnish:

                            - For a refreshing touch, place a few fresh mint leaves on top of the parfait.

                              Serve:

                                - For the best experience, enjoy your parfaits immediately after assembling to retain their tempting texture. Alternatively, chill in the refrigerator for about 15-30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld before serving.
