Ingredients
-
1 pint blueberries
-
8 large strawberries, stems removed
-
2 cups plain Greek yogurt
-
1 tablespoon strawberry preserves
Instructions
Divide the blueberries evenly among four small serving cups.
2. Make the Strawberry Hearts
Slice the strawberries lengthwise. Cut a small notch at the top of each slice to create a heart shape.
3. Arrange the Strawberries
Place five strawberry slices inside each cup, positioning the heart shapes against the glass so they’re visible from the outside.
4. Make the Strawberry Yogurt
In a small bowl, stir together the Greek yogurt and strawberry preserves until evenly combined.
5. Assemble the Parfaits
Spoon the strawberry yogurt mixture into each cup over the blueberries. Smooth the tops gently and serve immediately, or refrigerate until ready to enjoy.
Notes
-
Choose firm strawberries: Larger strawberries are easier to slice into heart shapes.
-
Show off the hearts: Press the strawberry slices gently against the inside of each glass before adding the yogurt.
-
Stir the yogurt well: Mixing the preserves evenly gives the parfaits a consistent strawberry flavor.
-
Keep the layers neat: Spoon the yogurt slowly over the blueberries to maintain the colorful layers.
-
Use clear cups: Small glass or clear plastic cups make the strawberry hearts and blueberry layer visible.
-
Adjust the sweetness: Add a little more strawberry preserves if you prefer a sweeter yogurt layer.
