Yogurt Parfait Recipe

1  Fage 0% in 6 oz. container
1 cup of fresh or thawed frozen berries of your choice (I like Wyman's Triple Berry Blend)
3/4 cup of whole grain granola
   -Or-
1/4 cup of unsalted sunflower seed kernels, almonds, or walnuts for a gluten-free option
1 scoop of protein powder (I like ON Cookies N' Cream flavored casein powder)
   -Or-
A gluten-free protein powder such as Vanilla Whey Protein

Stir all ingredients in a bowl and enjoy!
This recipe is 1 serving and is around 450 calories depending on your choice of ingredients.  It contains roughly 50 grams of protein and 30 grams of carbs using the option with nuts.  You'll also get over 15 grams of healthy fats from the nuts.  The granola option will yield more carbs and fiber.  This is a great breakfast and an excellent dessert.  If you use it as a dessert, you can split it with someone, though you probably won't want to!
