Fruit and Yogurt Parfait: Red, White, and Blue

Make a quick and healthy berry yogurt parfait with yogurt and leftover fruit for a no-fuss lunchbox side or snack!

Looking for a way to serve your kids all the delicious, juicy berries popping up this summer? 

This Fruit and Yogurt Parfait makes an easy, colorful snack perfect for busy summer days. Making these parfaits is so simple! Check out this video to see how I do it:

 

Cut the prep time for this recipe even shorter by making multiple parfaits at once and storing them in your fridge for grab-and-go moments. I like to keep them on a low shelf so my kids can easily grab them when it’s snack time.

Let your kids get involved with prepping these parfaits! Older children can chop the strawberries, and younger ones can help assemble the ingredients in the jars.

How to Make this Fruit & Yogurt Parfait

All you need for these parfaits are blueberries, diced strawberries, and your choice of vanilla yogurt. I like using Greek yogurt, for the high protein content but regular yogurt or even dairy-free yogurt will work too!

  1. Grab 2 glass yogurt ramekins or 2 chilled thermos containers.
  2. Divide the strawberries between the containers. Top each with half the yogurt and the blueberries.
  3. Finish off with the remaining yogurt a sprinkle of granola.

And just like that, you have a healthy snack for after school or the lunchbox! Want to pack this recipe for lunch? Go for it, but first, check out tips on how to keep yogurt and parfaits cold till lunch. You won’t have to worry about it going bad ever again.

Keeping fresh berries on hand is a must for my family. I use them all the time for packed lunches and snacks like this one or my homemade fruit yogurt.

If you find yourself tossing out fresh berries only after a few days, then try this trick I discovered to keep berries fresh. It helps all varieties of ber#yogurtries stay fresh, longer.

Did you know berries are considered some of the world’s most powerful superfoods?

They are rich in antioxidants, vitamins C and E, and phytochemicals, so you can feel good about serving them to your family—and your kids will love them!

I hope you make this berry parfait from The Best Homemade Kids’ Snacks on the Planet and enjoy it as much as my family does.

  43. JoAnn says

    The fusilli recipe looks amazing. Would never have thought to include hummus in a pasta dish…or in a s’mores dip!? (I have one small issue with those desserts. Why not show them with plain pita chips? Looks too sweet otherwise.)

    I will be dining with friends this 4th of July so I will bring the cucumber cups and the loaded chopped salad over to share. However, I am now on the lookout for the chipotle hummus since I have not seen that at my stores here in AZ. Do you think I could add chipotle flavor to regular hummus to achieve the same result?

  69. Krystal Watson says

    June 29, 2015 at 10:17 am

    I have never even thought of using hummus in dessert, so that spiced hummus cake would be interesting!

  70. Cassandra says

    My cousin and her family are coming into town and those individual 7 layer dips look perfect to avoid the little double dippers. Haven’t seen them in 4 years and I’m so excited she can meet my 2 little ones.

  157. Ashlee Reed says

    June 28, 2015 at 10:09 pm

  178. catherine says

    June 28, 2015 at 9:10 pm

    I love salads especially in the summer so the cucumber avocado salad is the one I pick to do and because I love both cucumbers and avocados it’s a must to make. It doesn’t really involve any cooking but I would still make it because it’s so good for you.

  179. Christine says

    June 28, 2015 at 9:09 pm

  184. Chris Pannier says

    June 28, 2015 at 8:55 pm

    I cannot imagine using hummus in cake. I am quite singular in that hummus is a dip, thats it, a dip. I cant wait to try hummus cake.

  185. Shannon S says

    June 28, 2015 at 8:52 pm

    S’mores dip! Sounds like a bit of a splurge but fun for a holiday get together.

  186. Jennifer says

    June 28, 2015 at 8:49 pm

    I’m a sucker for a 7 layer dip recipe, and the Individual 7 Layer Dip looks like a fun way to fancy that up!

  187. kathleen kiley says

    June 28, 2015 at 8:48 pm

  190. Nancy says

    June 28, 2015 at 8:46 pm

  197. Mindy G. says

    June 28, 2015 at 8:33 pm

    The chicken burgers look great! I want to make those. Didn’t think of putting hummus as a condiment like that.

  198. Meredith C. says

    June 28, 2015 at 8:33 pm

    For me it would be the cucumber and avo salad. Of course, I’d be the only one in my family eating it… but more for me! ;)

  199. Kelly says

    June 28, 2015 at 8:31 pm

  202. mechele says

    June 28, 2015 at 8:29 pm

    I am gonna try the berries and yogurt parfait. My nephew loves each of those separately. I haven’t tried to them together yet. He’s a very picky eater.

  203. Dorothy Williams says

    June 28, 2015 at 8:28 pm

    The Grilled Veggie Flatbread is my choice. Love that it doesn’t contain the traditional red sauce (grandson won’t eat) and includes lots of delicious veggies. I’m excited to share with the whole family!

  204. Rachael S says

    June 28, 2015 at 8:28 pm

    S’mores dip!

  205. Elisha says

    June 28, 2015 at 8:27 pm

  211. Sarah J says

    June 28, 2015 at 8:24 pm

    The coconut, chocolate, caramel pastries look so interesting!

  212. Nancy says

  220. Brooke Bumgardner says

    June 28, 2015 at 8:19 pm

    Oh, I so need to make the marinated chicken kabobs and mini apple pies. Yummy!

  221. Kelly R. says

    June 28, 2015 at 8:18 pm

    The creamy bruschetta dip looks delish :)

  222. Danielle A says

    June 28, 2015 at 8:18 pm

    I’m torn! S’mores Dip sounds AMAZING but I think the Bruschetta Dip is a neat way to use the Hummus and I’ve never tried the Pine Nut Hummus (I’m a tried and true Red Pepper Hummus girl myself). The key is which one is more likely to have people shoving each other out of the way to eat! I’m going with the Bruschetta Dip because the grown-ups would be too polite to arm wrestle over the S’mores Dip (at least in public)!

  223. Semonna McNeil says

    June 28, 2015 at 8:17 pm

    Just one? I’d love to try the Grilled Flatbread With Hummus & Mixed Veggies Recipe and the mini apple pies.

  224. Mary vissani says

    June 28, 2015 at 8:16 pm

    S’mores dip for sure!

  225. Sherri says

    June 28, 2015 at 8:09 pm

    Grilled veggie flatbread is my choice: I can vary the ingredients so everyone will eat it!

  226. Jennifer says

    June 28, 2015 at 1:08 am

  227. Sylvia Argueta says

    June 27, 2015 at 11:41 pm

    I just have to cook the Mediterranean Chicken Burger.

  228. Susan Christy says

    June 27, 2015 at 11:32 pm

    S’mores dip – YUM

  229. Robin says

    June 27, 2015 at 10:23 pm

    For sure it would be the grilled flatbread pizza. Best way to get all the veggies I can in my kiddo.

    For the adults would have to be the chorizo sliders. Yum!!

    Sorry it was hard to pick just one!!

  230. Heather says

    June 27, 2015 at 9:41 pm

    The cucumber salad looks yum!

  231. Dawn says

    June 27, 2015 at 9:43 am

    Just 1 lol. That’s tough if I had to pick just one, I think it would be the cucumber cups, or maybe the Marinated Chicken Kebobs. No, I think it would be the Mediterranean chicken burgers. Then again, the chipotle-hummus dressing for the loaded chopped salad sounds amazing

  232. Tanya Thoene says

    June 27, 2015 at 7:22 am

    Feast of the 4th, cucumber and avocado salad!!

  233. ChrystaB says

    June 26, 2015 at 10:50 pm

  234. Joann Woolley says

    June 26, 2015 at 5:50 pm
