Easy Breakfast Parfaits

I want to share the super-easy and kid-friendly breakfast parfaits I made this afternoon. It’s kind of awesome having tomorrow’s breakfast all prepped and ready to go for tomorrow morning! 
Easy Breakfast Parfaits
Last week, as I was meal planning, Jack asked if we could please have Market Street Mac & Cheese for dinner one night. Actually, his request was much more specific.

“Can we have Market Street Mac & Cheese for dinner, and then I can take some cold in my lunchbox to school the next day?” he asked.
I thought that sounded like an amazing idea.
When he was at school one day, I took Claire to the Allen location and we took pictures in the pumpkins, bought lunch, and brought home a giant tub of the Macaroni & Cheese for dinner that night (and lunch the following day!). I also picked up a few other things while I was there. I had been on the Market Street website looking at their breakfast ideas (they have a bunch of ideas for clever ways to use cereal and oatmeal for inexpensive, wholesome breakfasts…you can see the Market Street breakfast ideas here), and I got it in my head that I’d make some parfaits for the kids to have at breakfast. They love yogurt and they love cereal…what a perfect way to start the day.

Here’s what I used for my parfaits:

  • Honey
  • Greek yogurt
  • Fresh fruit (I used rasperries and bananas)
  • Cereal (I used Cheerios and a chocolate rice cereal)
  • Inexpensive plastic cups
  • Foil to cover them (so you can store them in the fridge)
Here’s how I made them:
  • Fill the bottom of the cup with honey (based on your honey preferences)
  • Add yogurt (I used a regular spoon, and each cup has about three heaping spoonfuls)
  • Add fruit (I used a layer of raspberries for some, and a layer of sliced bananas for the others)
  • Top with cereal of your choice
These were a serious hit! I will be short two tomorrow morning, because the kids already got into them…and loved them.
