Granola Parfait

I hear that a lot of people dread grocery shopping. I don't get that. I absolutely love picking out recipes, making a list, checking it twice, and taking my time walking the aisles to get the items I need. This morning we got down to the last of our food and I only had enough to make one Flat Belly meal. After eating I flipped through my Flat Belly Diet Cookbook and picked out a handful of recipes to try.

After a somewhat stressful morning with having to take the dog in to get his manhood striped from him I needed to destress. Shopping was it for me with itty bitty. A cart full of produce. I noticed that since starting this diet I mostly shop the perimeter of the store with the occasional walk down the snack aisle for the nuts and peanut butter or baking aisle for my oils. I avoid a lot of the processed junk in the middle aisles.

Once home it was nap time for itty bitty. After laying him down I got to making a Granola Parfait. It was just what I needed. Something quick and easy and oh so delicious. Bananas, raspberries, plain yogurt, and granola layered in a tall glass. I kicked my feet up and took a couple minutes to myself and enjoyed my snack. The granola and bananas tamed the tartness from the raspberries. So yummy!
