Island-Style Quinoa Parfait
Per serving (1 cup): 151 calories, 1.3g fat, 24g carbohydrates, 8.6g protein

Ditch the sugar-laden granola in your yogurt and try this tropical fruit parfait instead. Perfect for breakfast or as a snack, this parfait makes an excellent energy-boosting bite any time of day, says recipe creator Elisha Joyce (aka “The Quinoa Queen”).

Ingredients:
1/3 cup cooked quinoa (cooked in plain water, no salt)
1/3 cup Greek yogurt
1/3 cup fruit of your choice (Joyce prefers mango and banana together)

Directions:
Combine ingredients in a bowl, and serve! For some added flavor, Joyce recommends adding a drizzle of coconut milk, a sprinkling of unsweetened coconut, and/or a few crushed walnuts.

Makes 1 serving
