Strawberry Yoghurt Parfait


As I'm preparing for LIIFT4 I've been thinking about what I'm going to do to overcome my biggest obstacle: sweet tooth. And I was thinking back to when I FIRST started my health and fitness journey after having Connor 4 years ago. I made the healthy swap of ice cream to yogurt! Ice cream can definitely be part of a balanced diet, but if you're on the road to weight loss or fat loss then it's best to skip it MOST of the time. And, if you're like me, eating sugar makes you crave even more sugar! It truly is a vicious cycle. Here is one of my favourite fruits to add to yogurt and to feel fancy I simply layer them.

Ingredients:
1 cup washed and diced strawberries
1 cup greek yoghurt
1 tsp honey

Directions:
Add 1/2 tsp of  honey drizzle to inside of cup.
Layer strawberries and greek yoghurt in the cup.
Add remaining 1/2 tsp of honey drizzle to top of strawberries

Containers: Red and Yellow

This works well premade for a grab and go breakfast, a high protein snack to beat the mid day slump, or even as a healthy dessert swap.
