Ingredients

2 cups vanilla bean Greek Yogurt (Wallaby Organic Greek Yogurt) (roughly) eyeball it in the glasses that you use. I would say a little under 1/2 cup per layer

6 strawberries fresh or frozen. Washed and sliced lenghthwise
3/4 cup granola (roughly) mild tasting like vanilla

Instructions

Spoon yogurt in glasses
Layer cherries, strawberries and granola
Layer yogurt on the fruit/granola
Layer more cherries, strawberries and granola
Eat
Enjoy

Notes

When I make this, I don't measure out the ingredients, this is a rough measure. I dollop the yogurt in the glass and eyeball how much I want. I believe I used close to a cup of yogurt in each parfait.

Tips for making this yogurt parfait recipe:

Use organic fruit and granola whenever you can. There is a taste difference
I find two layers of all the ingredients is a healthy amount, but you could do this parfait in three layers if you keep the layers thinner
Wash fruit thoroughly, even organic fruit
Use a granola that won't be overpowering, like a vanilla (chocolate chip) like I did
Use a nice glass to house the yogurt parfait since we eat with our eyes as well as our mouths
You can use any combination of fruit. I like to have two contrasting colors of fruit
