I am in love.
Whenever I read parfait I think of DOnkey in Shrek…I have never made one, they look fantastico
I love how much colour this granola has…most granola seems to all bake down to boring brown. This is beautiful!
lime zest = love.
I’m guessing you will have a somber look tonight for the game…..I’ll be watching while I’m on the treadmill tonight hoping for a MAJOR philly comeback.
they did it last year, came back and beat Boston after being down 3-0, so miracles can definitely happen. And they will. Right?
Let’s not talk about it.
Oh yum, I love all the colors and flavors mixed into this. I bet it tasted amazing
yum yum yum. i love parfaits. this looks so great!
looks and sounds delicious!
This looks awesome! Does grapeseed oil taste like grapes? I love all of the different types of citrus!
I wish! Unfortunately it mostly tastes like nothing.
About how much does this recipe make?
It makes around 4 cups, depending on how small the nuts and apricots are chopped.
