Start your day with a grapefruit yogurt parfait, layered with toasted amaranth and coconut for a crunchy, nutritious breakfast.

Ingredients

  • 1 Florida Grapefruit
  • ½ cup coconut, wide-flake unsweetened
  • 1 cup yogurt, plain
  • ¼ cup raw amaranth
  • 4 tsp. honey

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  2. Place the coconut flakes on a baking sheet. Toast the coconut until golden brown and fragrant, about 5–7 minutes.
  3. Segment Florida Grapefruit and set aside.
  4. Toast amaranth: pour the dry grains (don’t rinse) into a dry pan.
  5. Set the pan over medium-high heat until they gently pop, usually about 3 to 5 minutes.
  6. Spoon 1/4 cup yogurt into the bottom of each glass or Mason jar.
  7. Top with a few segments of Florida Grapefruit, 1 tablespoon popped amaranth, 1½ tablespoons toasted coconut, and 1 teaspoon honey.
  8. Repeat to create another layer.
  9. Top each glass with extras and sprinkle the remaining coconut on top.

Helpful Tip: If you don’t have access to raw amaranth, try substituting with quinoa.
