Greek Yogurt Parfait - High-Protein Vegetarian Recipe

A Greek yogurt parfait with nuts and berries is a perfect way to start your day, especially if you’re looking for a high-protein vegetarian recipe that’s nutritious, satisfying, and delicious.
Course: Appetizer
Cuisine: Greek

Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • ½ cup Greek yogurt plain, unsweetened
  • ¼ cup mixed nuts almonds, walnuts, pistachios, or your choice
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds for added protein and fiber
  • ½ cup mixed berries blueberries, strawberries, raspberries, etc.
  • 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup optional, for sweetness
  • 1 tablespoon granola optional for extra crunch

Method
 

  1. The preparation steps for the vegan parfait are almost identical to the original recipe. However, instead of Greek yogurt, you’ll use the plant-based yogurt of your choice. Follow the same layering process, starting with the yogurt, then adding nuts, seeds, and berries in alternating layers.
  2. For a creamier texture, mix in a scoop of plant-based protein powder into the yogurt. This addition makes the parfait even higher in protein, helping it stand up to the original Greek yogurt version. You can also add hemp seeds for extra omega-3s and protein, which are especially beneficial in a vegan diet.
