Crunchy Yoghurt and Raspberry Pears

Submitted by bluemoon downunder

"Begin the day with a really quick to make, energy-injecting, healthy LOW GI breakfast. If there's one meal a day that you'll really feel the benefits of its being low GI, it's breakfast. Great for shaking off weekday sluggishness after late nights on Zaar. Adapted from Jody Vassallo's 'Health for Life: Low GI'. The pears can be prepared in advance. When fresh pears are looking pretty ordinary, I use canned pears.

This recipe was a no brainer for me as I have this most days. The only thing I don't do is bake my pears. I just happened to have a bowl of fresh red raspberries and so when I came across this recipe I thought...perfect. I make my own granola to accompany this breakfast. It almost tastes like dessert, it's so heavenly. Thanks bluemoon~

This was a nice, healthy breakfast! I couldn't bear to cook the beautiful red pear I had bought, so I didn't. Loved it! Thanks!
