Zesty Lemon Greek Yogurt Parfait

Healthy Fact of the Day

Greek yogurt is an excellent source of protein and probiotics, which are beneficial for gut health. Lemons are rich in vitamin C and antioxidants, supporting immune function and skin health.

Ingredients

 

  • 2 cups plain Greek yogurt
  • Zest of 2 lemons
  • 3 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 2 tbsp honey (adjust to taste)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

For the lemon curd (optional):

  • 2 egg yolks
  • 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, mix Greek yogurt, lemon zest, lemon juice, honey, and vanilla extract until well combined.

  2. If making lemon curd: In a heatproof bowl, whisk egg yolks, lemon juice, and sugar. Place over a pot of simmering water (double boiler) and cook, stirring constantly, until thickened. Remove from heat, stir in butter and salt. Let cool.

  3. In serving glasses or bowls, layer the lemon yogurt mixture.

  4. If using, add a layer of lemon curd.

  5. Top with granola, fresh blueberries, and sliced almonds.

Tip of the Day

“Always let your meat rest before slicing.”

Whether you're roasting a chicken, grilling steak, or baking pork tenderloin, letting cooked meat rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing allows the juices to redistribute evenly. This simple step keeps your meat juicy and tender, ensuring every bite is flavorful and moist. Bonus: It gives you a moment to plate your sides or garnish for a perfect presentation!
