As we celebrate 4th of July, with family and friends and of course some barbecue, we honour America’s independence. Unfortunately for me, I started a smoothie detox a few days ago and today I am cheating with a fruit parfait (maybe some barbecue later), that I’ve named ‘The Red, White and Blue’.
Why a detox? It helps rid the body of harmful toxins and revitalise you, after all, your body is your temple, treat it as such. This Parfait can be layered or topped off with granola, yoghurt or a sweetener like honey or maple syrup. This is great for either breakfast, a midday snack or dessert. Healthy, full of antioxidants and vitamins, you’ll be doing yourself and your body a whole lot of good!
Ingredients: ( serves 2 )
- 1 cup blueberries
- 1 cup of strawberries (thinly sliced)
- 1 apple (peeled, core removed and sliced thinly)
- 1 tablespoon Honey or Maple Syrup
- Wash blueberries and layer the bottom of two bowls or glasses evenly
- Drizzle some honey if you desire and then add a layer of apple slices
- Finally add the layer of strawberries and drizzle with honey or any other topping of your choice
- Enjoy - Happy 4th of July folks!
