I love it when I can use things I have on hand to make a new meal. It makes my budgeting heart so happy. This recipe is no exception. It takes the cake friends. This yogurt parfait recipe uses our homemade granola, dry-roasted chickpeas, and homemade yogurt to get you started. 

Isn’t that AH-mazing? 

Remember our Mason Jar Greek Salad recipe? If not, make a mental note to check it out after this yogurt parfait post. Anyways, our Mason Jar Greek Salads have had such a positive response that we knew we needed to offer another grab and go option for those busy mornings or afternoons. 

I like to prepare this yogurt parfait the night before, adding in the granola, fruit, and chickpeas. Then I stick it in the fridge and grab it on my way out the door in the morning. It is just that easy friends! 

So grab your favorite fruit to add to the container, stick it in the fridge, and then later enjoy your Grab and Go Yogurt Parfait!
