My kids thought they were getting some kind of “treat” for breakfast, which won me serious Mom-is-Awesome Points! So, they ran off to school with big smiles and I felt good about the balanced breakfast they just ate. You can change up the flavors of the parfaits but we really loved the peach/pear combo with Yoplait Thick & Creamy Light Cinnamon Roll yogurt. YUM! And, the Crunchy Almond Oatmeal Crisp provides the perfect crunch along with a healthy serving of whole grains and other nutrients.

Spread half of your yogurt cup into a bowl or large parfait dish… 
Add ¼ cup each chopped pears and peaches. Tip: Since peaches are sometimes hard to find in winter, grab a bag of frozen peach slices, thaw, and chop. They’re a great substitute. Sprinkle with cinnamon, if desired.
Top with 1/4 cup Crunchy Almond Oatmeal Crisp cereal.
Repeat layers with remaining yogurt and more fruit & Oatmeal Crisp. Serve immediately.

YUM! That sounds so good!
I do something like this for my daughter. I call it a Monday Sundae. The key is a fancy bowl. I use yogurt, sliced banana, a raspberry sauce(frozen raspberries mashed up) and sometimes chopped almonds and coconut. A maraschino cherry on top (which appears to have been fruit at some time) makes it go down even faster! I want to try adding a grain now, that sounds even better!
"Monday Sundae", I love it! :)
I am going to try this. I have to modify a little because one of my children have a tree nut allergy but MOMMY is like this for herself. LOL!!!
My daughter LOVES fruit and yogurt so this would be an easy way to mix up different flavors while sneaking in some extra fiber! I totally agree about the fancy bowl and cherry on top!
Excellent sneaky healthy breakfast. ;)
These look delicious!!...and I think I have all of the ingredients here, so I may make one for myself. :)
Hey...I have your penguin party post linked on my blog today because we copied your cardboard box penguin for our son's penguin birthday party last June. It was such a great idea and I meant to thank you sooner! It was a huge hit at the party. We have that penguin in our son's play room now, which I posted about today.

I'm eating eat right now, a great breakfast treat in the office. I even brought my special glasses to make this. I used canned peaches and a fresh pear, and other types of yogurt and cereals (available in my country) and it's amazing! Will definitely try again!
My son would love this! I'm going to try it.
Thanks so much,
Natalie

These look YUMMY! I can see why the kids thought they were getting a treat! The little cups are SO cute! They look like shrunken trifle bowls!
I found the little bowls recently at Wal-Mart, they're around 99 cents each!
