Ingredients:
- 1 cup strawberries, hulled and sliced
- 1 tablespoon sugar (optional, depending on the sweetness of strawberries)
- 1 cup Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla-flavored)
- 1/2 cup strawberry-flavored jubes or jelly candies, diced into small pieces
- Granola or crushed nuts (optional, for layering and topping)
Instructions:
- Prepare the Strawberries:
- In a bowl, toss the sliced strawberries with sugar (if using). Let them sit for about 10-15 minutes to macerate, releasing their juices.
- Prepare the Yogurt Mixture:
- In another bowl, mix the Greek yogurt until smooth. If using plain yogurt, you can add a bit of vanilla extract or honey for extra flavor.
- Assemble the Parfaits:
- Begin by layering the ingredients in serving glasses or jars. Start with a spoonful of yogurt at the bottom of each glass.
- Add a layer of macerated strawberries on top of the yogurt.
- Sprinkle a few diced strawberry jubes or jelly candies over the strawberries.
- Repeat the layers until you reach the top of the glass, finishing with a layer of yogurt.
- Top and Chill:
- Optionally, sprinkle some granola or crushed nuts on top for added crunch and texture.
- Serve:
- Chill the parfaits in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
- Serve cold and enjoy your delicious Strawberry Jubes Yogurt Parfait!
