Vertical Berry Yogurt Parfait: A Futuristic Twist on a Classic Breakfast
Ingredients:
1 cup plain yogurt made from cultured algae
1/2 cup mixed berries (grown in a vertical farm!)
1/4 cup microgreens (such as pea shoots or sunflower sprouts)
1 tablespoon granola (optional)
Drizzle of honey or maple syrup (optional)
Instructions:
- Gather your ingredients: Prepare the yogurt made from cultured algae, fresh berries from your vertical farm, and your chosen microgreens.
- Assemble the parfait: In a tall glass or parfait jar, layer the yogurt, followed by half of the berries.
- Add a microgreen boost: Sprinkle a layer of microgreens on top of the berries.
- Repeat the layers: Add another layer of yogurt and top it with the remaining berries.
- Finishing touches: For a touch of sweetness and crunch, sprinkle your parfait with granola (optional) and drizzle with honey or maple syrup (optional).
Tips:
- Get creative with your berry choices! Strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries are all delicious options. You can even use a mix of your favourites.
- Explore different microgreens! Pea shoots offer a mild, pea-like flavour, while sunflower sprouts have a slightly nutty taste.
- Make it vegan! Choose a yogurt made from cultured soy or another plant-based alternative. Opt for agave nectar or another vegan sweetener instead of honey or maple syrup.
- Prepare your own granola! This allows you to control the ingredients and sweetness level.
