July 17, 2007: Yogurt Anyone?

I plan to prepare "Fruit and Yogurt Parfait" for breaking fast this evening. Do you have other recipe of how you serve yogurt? Please feel free to share.

Ingredients:

• 1 medium ripe fresh peach or nectarine or 2 medium kiwifruits (I'll use mango instead)
• 1 8-ounce carton plain low-fat yogurt
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
• 1/2 cup bite-size shredded wheat biscuits, coarsely crushed
• 2 teaspoons sugar-free pancake and waffle syrup or light pancake and waffle syrup product
• 1 tablespoon sliced almonds, toasted
• Dash ground cinnamon

Directions:

1. If desired, peel fruit; pit peach and nectarine. Chop fruit, reserving 2 wedges for garnish. Set aside.

2. Combine yogurt and vanilla. Spoon half of the yogurt mixture into two 8- to 10-ounce parfait glasses. Top with half of the crushed cereal, all of the chopped fruit, syrup, remaining yogurt mixture, and remaining crushed cereal. Sprinkle with almonds and cinnamon. Garnish each serving with a reserved fruit wedge. Makes 2 servings.
