Tropical Parfait
It’s been over 90 degrees for several days here in Portland–UGH. I am not a fan of that kind of heat! I thought a tropical parfait would cool my kids down after school today and I was right. Parfaits are a fun and easy way to make simple ingredients seem fancy. Both of my kids loved the combination of fruit, yogurt, and granola topped with shredded coconut and they gobbled up every single bite. These tropical parfaits made a fun and tasty after-school treat and put huge smiles on my kids’ faces.

Very easy to assemble and so refreshing on a summer day! Nice dessert! 🙂
That’s the kind of thing I love for breakfast! It was hot here for about 3 days, and it’s been in the 60s since. I’d love to have the weather settle down and be just hot instead of see-saw temperatures.
That’s too damn hot, how is it hotter up there than it is down here? I’d move South if I were you 😉
I would love this for breakfast.
This looks glorious! I must make some too.
looks like a fine treat for hot weather. For some reason, I thought folks came to the NW to escape the heat – hope it’s gone by Sep.
It’s been in the 90s here, too. Typical for this part of the country, but that doesn’t mean I have to like it! Parfaits were really popular when I was a kid — my mom always served them to company. Always a favorite of mine, so glad to see yours. It’d be perfect any time of the day, not just for dessert!
we’re in the 90s too, and this sounds like the perfect way to cool down! i love a parfait–tasty, easy, and SO elegant! 🙂
Love the new look Pam, and I hope your techie issues get sorted soon. Tried to comment from my tablet this morning, but it did not work. This looks like a breakfast I would enjoy 🙂
It’s been toeing the 90’s here lately…and I HATE IT. I mean, I don’t want winter to come back, but SHEESH…what happened to spring?!
These parfaits sound awesome. Tropical fruits are so fun!
I loved these! You make them so well
