Blueberry Yogurt Parfait

Author: Michelle Babb

This is one of the easiest desserts you'll ever make, and it's a crowd pleaser every time! Use good quality Greek yogurt and your guests won't even know that they're eating a "healthy" dessert. If berries are out of season, go for frozen berries and let them thaw before assembling the parfait.

Ingredients:

1½ cups pecans
1 vanilla bean, split and seeds scraped out
1 teaspoon cinnamon
½ teaspoon sea salt
½ cup pitted dates
16 ounces Greek yogurt
2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries

Directions:

1. In food processor, combine pecans, vanilla bean scraping, cinnamon, sea salt and dates.
   
2. Chop to a medium to coarse texture.
3. In parfait-style glass, layer yogurt, blueberries and pecan/date mixture.
   
4. Chill and serve.
