Ingredients
  

1 cup Greek yogurt (vanilla or plain)

1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional, for sweetness)

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional, for flavor)

1 cup granola (your choice; a nutty variety works well)

1 ripe banana, sliced into rounds

1 cup mixed berries (such as strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries)

1/2 ripe mango, diced into small cubes

1 kiwi, peeled and thinly sliced

Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional, for freshness and color)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Yogurt Mixture:

    In a medium-sized bowl, combine the Greek yogurt with honey or maple syrup and the vanilla extract, if using. Mix thoroughly until the ingredients are fully blended and the yogurt is smooth and creamy. Taste the mixture and adjust the sweetness to your liking.

      Layer the Parfait:

        Choose a tall glass or a decorative bowl for serving. Start by adding a generous spoonful of the sweetened yogurt to the bottom, creating the base layer of your parfait.

          Incorporate Granola:

            Sprinkle about 2 tablespoons of granola over the yogurt layer. This will add a delightful crunch and texture to your parfait.

              Add Fresh Fruits:

                On top of the granola, layer your sliced banana, followed by a handful of mixed berries, and the diced mango. Continue to alternate these layers until the glass is filled to your desired height. Make sure to finish with a layer of yogurt and a final sprinkle of granola on top to create an appealing finish.

                  Garnish with Kiwi and Mint:

                    To enhance the presentation, stylishly arrange the kiwi slices over the top of your parfait. Add a few fresh mint leaves for a finished look that is both colorful and aromatic.

                      Serve Immediately or Chill:

                        Serve your Tropical Bliss Fruit & Yogurt Parfait right away for the best texture, or chill it in the refrigerator for a refreshing treat later on!
