Cool Breakfast

[FlowerGarden]

Does anyone like eating parfaits for breakfast? I tried the ones at McD's but wasn't really impressed. I later made my own with Cool Whip.

That sounds yummy to me! I don't like how the fast food ones have frozen berries. I guess it would be easy to make your own with yogurt, fresh fruit, and granola, or whatever else tickles your fancy. I think I'll try this soon!

Really, I got the idea from CoolWhip.com The site has a bunch of recipes that are really delicious. I haven't been able to make many of them, but the ones I have made were really good. They even have a Healthy Living section on there for the lighter choices.

I used to love Mickey D's parfaits. But they've made them smaller, and they put too much sour fruit in them, and not much yogurt. And I hardly get the granola. I'll have to try the coolwhip ones!

I have never had a parfait!

Parfaits are the best. Especially if you like fresh fruit. The ones from McD's are definitely different, but that's why I started making my own. The best part for me is that one serving only has 25 calories from the tub and no trans fat or cholesterol. That way, I don't feel guilty about eating it.

Hehehe - this thread makes me think of Shrek - when he and Donkey are talking about layers (Shrek meaning onions) and Donkey says something about everyone loving parfaits!
