Mixed Berry Parfait

This recipe is from our Bountiful Breakfast Menu that contains 45 more delicious and easy diabetic breakfast recipes.

Though it is perfect just like this, a Mixed Berry Parfait is so easy to make and can be made in any number of variations.

It’s got a good combination of healthy fat and protein from plain Greek yogurt, nuts and seeds, and some sweetness from the berries and cinnamon.

It’s great for a morning when you’re on the run and can easily be made the night before, so it’s ready and waiting for you in the morning.

To add some extra fiber to the mix, add some chia seeds or a little flaxseed meal to the mix. The added fiber will keep you fuller longer and keep your blood sugar regulated too.

Hope you enjoy it!

    25 grams of carbs are way too much. Berry parfait

    Great recipes!! Thanks so much.
    I had a question though- what can I swap for dessicated coconut? I would usually leave it out as I don’t like the taste but its in rather large quantity in this recipe so it would be great if you could recommend a low carb alternative.
    Many thanks,
    Shivani

      Hi Shivani, you can use other types of nuts or grounds nuts instead, or some pepita or flax seeds. :)
