Try this Mini LoCal Yogurt Parfait Recipe
Yogurt Parfait Recipe–don’t miss this one for your family! You can create it using Activia Selects. I use these products in my household not just as a yogurt but also a dessert alternative. I can’t stand overly sweet desserts, so the Activia Selects Parfait Yogurt Style which has this great crunchy granola that you can mix right in, provides me and my family with a wonderful satisfying nutrious dessert and it’s cost effective too. You can basically make a whole dessert for a family of 4 from ONE Activia Selects Parfait and a few basic ingredients from your pantry! Yummy!

Cook at 350 Degrees for 10 minutes or until crunchy golden brown. Remove from oven. Let granola mixture cool 15 min. In 4 small shot glasses or aperitifs glasses, put an 1/8 of the Activia Select Parfait yogurt in each glass. Top with 1/8 of the granola mixture on top of the yogurt. Divide the remaining yogurt among the glasses as the top layer. Sprinkle on the remaining granola mixture dividing evenly between glasses. Top each with one M&M or one Raspberry. You can freeze for one hour (Chief Blonde recommended) or eat immediately to enjoy this yogurt parfait recipe. (4 Servings, Approximately 110 cal each!)

I love this. I am trying to cut back, and I love overly sweet desserts, thus my issue. I can have a little sweet with the granola side and brown sugar mix. But yogurt is beneficial. I guess it’s starts with will power. It doesn’t have to be the highest fat content like ice cream, yogurt tastes good too.
