Ingredients

Nonfat Greek yogurt 1 cup
Mixed nuts 1 oz
Mixed fruit (pineapple, berries) 1/2 cup

Method

Prepare the ingredients. Wash the mixed berries thoroughly under cold running water. If using fresh pineapple, peel and cut it into small chunks. Roughly chop the mixed nuts to create small pieces that will add a crunchy texture to the parfait.
Tip: If using frozen berries or pineapple, let them thaw at room temperature for about 10 minutes before assembling to avoid excess moisture.
Layer the yogurt. Take a tall glass or a bowl and spoon half of the nonfat Greek yogurt into the bottom. Spread it evenly to create a smooth base layer.
Tip: Use a spoon or spatula to smooth the yogurt for a neat presentation.
Add fruit and nuts. Sprinkle half of the mixed fruit evenly over the yogurt layer. Then, add half of the chopped mixed nuts on top of the fruit. This layering adds a nice balance of flavors and textures.
Tip: Distribute the fruit and nuts evenly to ensure every bite has a mix of flavors.
Repeat the layers. Add the remaining half of the Greek yogurt on top of the first fruit and nut layer. Then, top it with the remaining mixed fruit and nuts to complete the parfait.
Tip: For a decorative touch, arrange some whole berries or a few whole nuts on the very top.
Serve immediately. Enjoy your mixed fruit and nut yogurt parfait right away for the best texture and freshness. If you prefer it chilled, you can refrigerate it for up to 30 minutes before serving.
Tip: Avoid preparing too far in advance to keep the nuts crunchy.

Pro tips

Use fresh, ripe fruits for the best flavor and natural sweetness.
Chop nuts just before assembling to maintain their crunchiness.
