Rainy Day Parfait - Breakfast or Dessert?

Yesterday was the one day, out of the next 10, that was sunny and so we spent most of it outside. But that one day was over too quickly and now we are in the midst of some heavy rain. The kids and I went to the gym today and then to the farmer's market. Yes, in the rain but it was very light so they did not mind. So, I found myself sitting here under dark clouds and craving something sweet and crunchy. But what to eat? We had some organic vanilla yogurt (their favorite), some cereal and berries so we created a parfait and are smiling now. Bring on the rain.

6oz. cup of organic non-fat vanilla yogurt
approx. 1/2 cup organic vanilla almond crunch cereal (cascadian farms)
approx. 1/3 cup blueberries
approx. 1/4 cup raspberries

Directions:
Place a layer of yogurt in the bottom and top with granola, then blueberries and repeat. When almost to the top, place a thin layer of yogurt, granola and raspberries on the top.

If you prefer a thicker yogurt, consider using greek yogurt. This would also be a great breakfast or dessert.

Thankfully, I finished taking the pictures just in time.
