Healthy Snacks: Yogurt Parfaits

When it’s not quite hot enough for a frozen treat, yogurt parfaits are a cool and healthy snack.

Use low-fat yogurt and see if you can get away with the plain flavored variety, letting fruit be the source of sweetness (mash up some bananas or berries with a fork and mix with the yogurt).

Start with tall, clear glasses and let kids create their own parfait, layering spoonfuls of yogurt, fruit, granola, and other fun foods. Most ingredients can be store-bought, but try making your own granola!

Honey Nut Granola

Ingredients

* 4 cups rolled oats
* 1 cup sliced almonds
* 1 cup chopped pecans
* 1 cup raw sunflower seeds
* 1/3 cup canola oil
* 1/2 cup honey
* 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
* 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
2. In a large bowl, stir oats, nuts and sunflower kernels together. In a separate bowl, mix together oil, honey, vanilla and cinnamon. Add to dry ingredients; mix well. Spread mixture onto two ungreased baking sheets.
3. Bake in preheated oven, for 10 minutes, remove from oven and stir. Return to oven and continue baking until golden, about 10 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool completely before storing.

Banana Bread

Ingredients

* 1/2 cup margarine, softened
* 1 cup white sugar
* 2 eggs
* 1 1/2 cups mashed banana
