This year, get the joy of a V-Day inspired dessert that brings together the flavors of love and health in every spoonful. The mix of berries provides a burst of antioxidants, supporting heart health and overall well-being. Greek yogurt adds a creamy texture and a dose of protein, contributing to satiety and muscle health. Find down below this recipe, highly recommended by our chefs.

Ingredients:

• 500 g mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)
• 500 g Greek yogurt (unsweetened)
• 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
• 250 g almond granola (homemade or store-bought)
• fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional)

How to?

Step 1. Prepare the Berries:

Wash and hull the strawberries, then slice them into bite-sized pieces. In a bowl, combine the sliced strawberries with blueberries and raspberries. Toss gently to mix.

Step 2. Sweeten the Yogurt:

In another bowl, mix the Greek yogurt with honey or maple syrup. Adjust the sweetness to your liking.

Step 3. Layer the Parfait:

Begin assembling your parfait by placing a spoonful of the sweetened Greek yogurt at the bottom of each serving glass or bowl. Add a layer of mixed berries on top of the yogurt. Sprinkle a generous layer of almond granola over the berries. Repeat the layers until you reach the top of the glass, finishing with a dollop of Greek yogurt and a few berries on top.

Step 4. Garnish and Chill:

Garnish with fresh mint leaves for a burst of color and aroma. Place the parfaits in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the parfait to chill.

Step 5: Serve with Love:

When ready to serve, present your Berry Parfait with a smile. Encourage everyone to dig in and savor the delightful layers of flavor. This Valentine's Day, let your dessert be a celebration of love and good health! Credit Photo: by Sambazon on Unsplash
