Vegan Paradise Parfait

It’s breezy outside this morning. That’s so nice. It’s normally 187° in Texas in August.

The breeze on my morning walk made me want something tropical-ish for breakfast. Today’s #veganthursday (a theme I’ve been doing on the @a_toastedcrumb Instagram for a while now), so it’s got to be vegan. Let me think.

I’ve got a ton of frozen fruit, some organic coconut, hmm.. oh and vegan yogurt! I bought a container of it last week because I was going to make a vegan tzatziki sauce, but changed plans. Perfect!

It’s really not that hard to create meals that are specific to a diet (vegan, whole 30, paleo, etc.) if you have good swaps around in your kitchen and are rather familiar with the “rules” of the diet. I like to try out vegan recipes mostly just to extend my knowledge of different styles of cooking (I am far from vegan myself). Although, I am very pro adding plant based options to your diet on a regular basis. It’s great for you, and it doesn’t taste nearly as bad as everyone thinks it does!

For this parfait, you’ll need:

• Vegan Yogurt (I used Non-Dairy Chobani Vanilla Yogurt)
• Frozen Mangos (I use Wymans, always!)
• Pineapple Juice
• Strawberries
• Oranges
• Unsweetened Organic Coconut Flakes

Start by making a pineapple mango yogurt for one of the layers in your parfait.

In a smoothie blender add a half cup of non-dairy yogurt, about 2 ounces of pineapple juice, and a 2/3 cup of frozen mangos, blend until smooth.

Now, all you’ve got to do is layer!

Start with either your vanilla or mango yogurt, layer it will a sprinkle of coconut flakes, chopped strawberries and orange segments, then the other layer of yogurt, and repeat!

Parfaits are incredibly easy and all up to your preference! Have fun with it!
