Raspberry Yogurt Parfait
Barbie is all the rave right now so I shared this recipe on Instagram as a “Barbie inspired yogurt bowl” and it got so much hype! You can call it the pink yogurt parfait, raspberry parfait, or the Barbie parfait; take your pick! It’s a hearty, satisfying and blood sugar balancing breakfast but I’d be lying if I said I haven’t made something similar for a quick lunch. It’s filled with protein, fiber, and healthy carbs and is naturally sweetened with fruit.
