Instructions
1. Wash the strawberries thoroughly under cold running water, then pat them dry with a paper towel.
2. Slice the strawberries into thin slices and set them aside.
3. In a medium bowl, mix the low-fat Greek yogurt with the vanilla extract. If you prefer a slightly sweeter parfait, stir in the optional honey.
4. Gather 4 serving glasses or small bowls for layering the ingredients.
5. Begin with a layer of about 2 tablespoons of the yogurt mixture at the bottom of each glass.
6. Add approximately 2 tablespoons of the sliced strawberries as the second layer.
7. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of low-fat granola on top of the strawberries.
8. Repeat the layers (yogurt, strawberries, granola) until the glasses are full, ending with a sprinkle of granola on top for garnish.
9. Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 2 hours to enjoy later. Note: If refrigerating, add the final granola layer just before serving to maintain its crunch.
