I slept as long as possible this morning – yes, yet again, I decided it was a good idea to stay up until midnight watching Anthony Bourdain travel through the Philippines! It was a good show, interesting food, but I easily could have DVR’d it and gone to bed!
So breakfast and lunch was sort of “thrown” together with whatever was within easy reach. I’ve been seeing yogurt parfaits all around food blog land and decided to give it a try. I am curious if this will hold me as well as my beloved eggs and cheese!
- 8 ounce vanilla yogurt
- 2.5 ounces strawberries
- 3.0 ounce chopped apple
- 1.5 ounces Organic Path Pumpkin Seed Granola
- squirt of whip cream 😀

I am not sure I’ll fix this again, or if I do, maybe have half as much. By the end it was SO sweet – ever since becoming diabetic, my sweet tooth has been switched to savory, hence when my love affair with cheese was born!
Morning break is over – come back for Cincinnati Chili with Tofu Noodles!
dessert like breakfast is the best! 😀
I have a secret love affair going with Organic Path Pumpkin Granola. I try not to buy it, because I eat it all. I think the strawberries, yogurt and granola would have been enough for me, but as others said, I’d have had it for dessert. Give me eggs & cheese for breakfast any day!
I just found tofu noodles!!! I AM SO EXCITED!

What a yummy breakfast!
I agree- try Greek yogurt (plain) if you want a better and less sweet taste!
What a beautiful breakfast!
I’m with you on savory cravings vs. sweet. cheese always wins in my book!
that parfait looks like a dessert! 🙂
beautiful breakfast 🙂
I love Anthony Bourdain – he is so funny.
Hope you’re having a good day!
I’m with you – this seems more like a dessert than a breakfast to me.
Love Anthony Bourdain!! What a fabulous parfait 🙂
I got the book in the mail yesterday! Thanks again for holding the contest!!
If you do try it again, you should use plain yogurt, that way the only sweetness comes from the fruit and granola, and it’s not so overwhelming 🙂
i loved your onion rings for dinner!!!! yummy!
that parfait looks good- but i always wonder if they really do fill you up… let us know at lunch time!
Hi Biz! I like the idea of the green salsa mixed with ranch dressing, that is such an awesome idea because I always have those two ingredients on hand.!
And your onion rings look like a real hit! I’ve bought frozen onion rings before, and they don’t even have as many in there as just buying 1 big onion! That’s so much cheaper!
