Greek Yogurt Parfait

Instructions

1. Prepare the yogurt base
   In a medium bowl, combine the Greek yogurt with honey and vanilla extract. Stir well until the mixture is smooth and the honey is fully incorporated. Set aside.
2. Prepare the fruits
   Wash the berries thoroughly and pat them dry. Hull and slice the strawberries if using. Slice the banana into ¼-inch rounds. Set the prepared fruit aside.
3. Assemble the first layer
   Using two clear glasses or mason jars, add 2 tablespoons of granola to the bottom of each. Then add ¼ cup of the prepared yogurt mixture on top of the granola in each glass.
4. Create the fruit layer
   Add a layer of mixed berries and banana slices on top of the yogurt. Sprinkle with a few chia seeds and a small amount of chopped nuts.
5. Build the parfait
   Continue layering with another ¼ cup of yogurt in each glass, followed by more fruit, nuts, and a sprinkle of chia seeds. Repeat until all ingredients are used, finishing with a yogurt layer on top.
6. Add final toppings
   Top each parfait with the remaining granola, a sprinkle of chopped nuts, and a light drizzle of honey. Add lemon zest if using, and garnish with a few fresh mint leaves.
