Crunchy Granola Parfait
High protein, gluten-free, dairy-free, refined sugar-free, vitamin rich
Granola layered with fresh fruit and vegan yogurt makes a perfect, yummy breakfast parfait. My homemade granola is my go-to breakfast. So, I combined my favorite almond-apple-granola with fresh strawberries and mangoes and layered them into a pretty bowl with my favorite vegan vanilla yoghurt. This granola easily rivals any high-end, super expensive granola from a health-food store. And it is homemade! I enjoy giving my granola as gifts to my friends and family.
