This is a recipe that boasts both simplicity and sophistication. Made with just a handful of wholesome ingredients, including creamy Greek yogurt, nutrient-rich chia seeds, and fresh, vibrant strawberries, this parfait is a testament to the ease of low-carb living. Simply layer the ingredients in a glass or jar, refrigerate for a few hours or overnight, and wake up to a deliciously satisfying treat that’s perfect for busy mornings or leisurely brunches. With the added crunch of walnuts, the subtle sweetness of shredded coconut, and the healthful benefits of flax seeds, this parfait is as nourishing as it is delicious.
You can mix and match this parfait to meet both your macros and needs. Don’t like flaxseed? Swap them out for pumpkin or sunflower seeds. Don’t want walnuts? You can use almonds, pecans, or macadamia nuts. You can even add protein powder and some heavy cream to the yogurt (mix together before using) to add fat and protein as needed! Swap out the strawberries for raspberries, or if you have a sweet tooth you can sweeten the Greek yogurt before using it. Simply find what works best for you and what you enjoy the most. You can batch-make these and have them ready to go in containers to grab as needed, too.
