Forager is great if you don’t eat dairy. For dairy, I recommend Nancy’s nonfat probiotic. Other ingredients: local Bee pollen, chia seeds, coconut manna, shredded coconut, maple syrup (optional), Cinnamon, oat or almond milk, Fresh vanilla beans and/or vanilla extract, fresh and or frozen fruit-I like Blueberries, raspberries, bananas, and stone fruit( Peaches, Apricots, nectarines, etc.…), and sometimes I add dry rolled oats, ground flax, and hemp seeds. Start with the bowl of yogurt. Then spoon in Chia. I don’t have an exact science about measurements but you can be generous with the seeds. From here add cinnamon, maple syrup, A touch of oat or almond milk (vanilla flavor or plain), flax and shaved coconut. If you want to use flex and hemp, add them here. If your fruit is frozen (do not add banana yet), place into a small pan with a touch of maple syrup ( you may also use raw honey or agave), cinnamon, and vanilla. If you use fresh fruit, warm up the manna, vanilla, and maple separately with at least a few berries. Low heat. Try using a little bit of the manna the first time you make it. If you like it, feel free to be generous with it in the recipe.The key here is to get the fruit nice and warm so the coconut manna melts into the fruit sauces, and goes into the parfait this way. Once everything is nice and warm and soft, let the fruit cool before layering into mason jars, alternating between the yogurt mix and the fruit with layers of banana between. If you’d like to add oats you may layer them here as well. I serve in mason jars, because they are perfect to see the beauty and color of the parfait. Top with a sprinkle of coconut and cinnamon, and a bit of the fruit. Place covered in the fridge to cool for at least 30 minutes as the chia needs time to soften. Eat within four days. Enjoy for breakfast, dessert, or a fabulous energizing midday snack. The kids will love it too!
