Shane had his last day of school last week, it’s almost June, and it’s already hitting 100 degrees here on a regular basis. Summer is officially here! It’s time to pull out the flip flops and the pool floats and a whole lot of time applying sunscreen. It’s also time for lots of delicious, no-bake desserts!
This past weekend was Memorial Day, so in that spirit I made Red, White, and Blue Parfaits for dessert! The kids absolutely love these because they’re sweet and colorful, and I love letting them have them because they have fruit and yogurt! They also have some NILLA Wafers- they absolutely make the parfait!
Red, White, and Blue Parfait
Ingredients:
Vanilla Yogurt
Blueberries
Sliced strawberries
Sliced bananas
NILLA Wafers
Directions:
1. Grab your favorite glass- I recommend one that’s clear so you can see how pretty the parfait is, but if you’re serving kids you may want to go with plastic. Fill the bottom about 1/3 of the way with vanilla yogurt.
2. Add a thick layer of blueberries. Add a layer of NILLA Wafers around the edge of the glass.
3. Add another 1/3 or so of vanilla yogurt, then a thick layer of strawberries.
4. Add a final layer of vanilla yogurt, and top it off with a few blueberries, a couple of slices of strawberries, a few banana slices, and a couple of NILLA Wafers. Enjoy!
It’s such a simple treat and perfect for cooling off in the hot summer! There’s red, white, and blue in the layers as well as on the top, so this is the perfect summer dessert for all of the patriotic holidays- from Memorial Day to 4th of July to Labor Day!
The NILLA Wafers are absolutely the star of the show in this dish, and while I chose to use the Original flavor, it would be fun to switch it up and use Lemon NILLA Wafers! Lemon always reminds me of summer, so I could see that being a fun addition.
NILLA Wafers, in both Original and Lemon, can make all kinds of delicious, no-bake summer treats! You can click here for even more summer recipe ideas.
