Fruit Parfait....just winging it


When I originally set out to make this recipe I was using a recipe I found in my Sunday Paper coupons for Yoplait Blended Strawberry Yogurt. I went to the store to pick up the ingredients and #1 the store didn't have the yogurt listed on the coupon #2 they didn't have the chocolate waffers called for in the recipe so I had to improvise.


See how I improvised below:-)

1 container of Yoplait whips light and fluffy strawberry mist(low fat mousse)...Dang that's a mouth full!


1 banana cut in small pieces

1/2 cup of fresh strawberries cut in small pieces

10 vanilla wafers crumbled



I cut the fruit in small pieces because I wanted to use these small glasses I have and make just enough for my Hubbie and I.

After making it I have decided the next time around to slice the bananas and layer them so that the yogurt does not slide down.

Her goes pretty simple:

vanilla wafers on bottom layer,bananas,yogurt then strawberries, then repeat.On the very top of the parfait I placed the top of one of the bigger strawberries tops that I cut off.
 
We enjoyed this after meal as a dessert!
I'll make it again and probably make different variations.
