TGIF! With the work week coming to end, we can’t wait for the weekend. It’s the perfect opportunity to sit back, relax, and make some of our favorite home-cooked, nutritious, and energy filled BREAKFAST recipes! Yes, breakfast! We know breakfast may be the hardest meal of the day while getting ready for work, and sending the kids off to school but we are here to help! Check our blog today, tomorrow, and Sunday for easy, healthy breakfast options that are sure to keep you energized!

One of the easiest and most enjoyable (in our opinion!) breakfasts is a parfait. The best part about a parfait is that you can substitute any of the fruits, the flavor of f, yogurt and the type of granola! As long as you stick to a low-fat or fat free yogurt (look for one that’s low in added sugar or that has no added sugar) and a low calorie granola option, you’re all set to go!

Breakfast Parfait:

• 3/4 cup nonfat vanilla yogurt
• 1/2 cup papaya, pineapple and mango chunks (Trader Joes has these frozen so we keep them around even in the winter)
• 2 Teaspoons toasted almond granola

We love starting off with the vanilla yogurt. Then we add papaya chunks, pineapples, and mangos. Top it off with 2 teaspoons of toasted almond granola, and it’s delicious!

What healthy options can you make this weekend with yogurt, granola, and fruit?
