I loved this. More than I thought I would! The combination was wonderful. I loved the crunch from the cereal. The cinnamon almost melted into the yogurt and it made it taste like honey. Blueberries were the perfect complement. Thank you! -
Healthy, quick, use any fruit and it would be pretty too. -
Mmmm, this recipe is sooooo good! The taste of the plain yogurt with the fresh berries is so refreshing and I really enjoyed the addition of some crunchy cereal, too. I used an organic muesli with cornflakes, barley flakes, buckwheat flakes, poppy seeds, sunflower seeds, amaranth, dates and figs in place of the all bran and it tasted so good! No need for additional sugar or anything. Very good, yummy and so healthy, too. Great! :)<br/>THANK YOU SO MUCH for sharing this winner with us, yogiclarebear! Ill definitely make it again.<br/>Made and reviewed for I Recommend July 2010. -
I bought a couple of yogurts because they were on sale and thought I need to eat more of this stuff. I just made this for a midmorning snack. I used frozen blueberries that I had thawed, vanilla low fat yogurt and a tsp. of ground flaxseed. Thanks for reminding me how good a yogurt can taste again. -
tastes like the parfait you'd buy when you're out - i used vanilla yogurt instead of plain - i'm way too lazy at breakfast time though to make this very often

Me in my kitchen, and at the Wild game.
I am a photographer, portrait and fine art, and I am a yoga instructor. Besides cooking, I enjoy fitness and yoga, reading, organizing, gardening, puzzles, family, and HOCKEY. GO WILD!!!! I love to cook for my large husband...he is a natural powerbuilder and has a lot of muscle to feed. People ask how he got so "huge" and he has to answer, my cooking of course!
We both work out a lot, so we eat a lot of healthy food...I cook a LOT! The recipes I post and save to my cookbooks are usually healthy and lower calorie, or can be adapted to be so.
