Red, white and blue berry parfait

Yogurt parfait with fresh strawberries and blueberries

This delicious light breakfast or snack is red, white and blue—and good for you, too. Eating colorful produce is a great way to get plenty of nutrients and make your meals look enticing. Bright red berries, for instance, are a good source of the heart-healthy antioxidants anthocyanins. Bananas provide you with blood-pressure-balancing potassium. And beautiful blueberries are a top source of anti-inflammatory flavonoids.

Whether it’s the Fourth of July or any other day, you’ll love this patriotic parfait.

Two glasses of layered dessert featuring yogurt, mixed berries, and strawberry sauce, garnished with mint leaves, placed on a wooden table alongside a linen napkin and two small spoons.
