This Rhubarb Yogurt Ginger Granola Parfait was fantastic!! I used the compote I made in my canning class and it was excellent!! It was a rhubarb orange compote so I thought a nice thick and creamy Greek vanilla yogurt would go nicely.
Paired with those two I added ginger-flavored organic granola with cashews. WOW, what a lovely combination.
It was a beautiful day (we aren’t getting many of those) so I thought I would take my photos outside. Amber was off school for the day and we got to enjoy a beautiful breakfast parfait on the back deck. A great way to start off the day!!!
