Overview
Why it works
Snack, breakfast, dessert - this parfait flexes into any meal slot when you need quick protein without cooking. Build it in a glass jar and you can grab it on the way out the door.
- Full-fat Greek yogurt delivers casein for sustained amino acid release.
- Berries are the most polyphenol-dense fruit category - strong recovery support.
- Granola adds crunch and slow carbs without spiking blood sugar like cereal does.

Pro Tips
Coach-level details
- Use frozen berries - they bleed color and flavor through the yogurt overnight.
- Make 3 jars at once for the week. Add granola only when serving so it stays crunchy.
- Stir in a half scoop of vanilla whey for a 45g protein version.
