Apple Crisp Parfait Recipe
Ugh… I am sitting here with major writers block. I should be able to just spit things out. Tell you how my day went, a funny story, and then why I decided to make this dish and why you need to try it. But…. Well, I guess that’s what I’ll to do.
How my day went: Awesome, Cason and I took a little field trip and went to have lunch with daddy. We went to one of my favorite places, The Black Walnut Cafe, and had grilled fish tacos while sitting outside enjoying the beautiful weather!
A funny story: Cason is learning where all the rooms of the house are and what happens in each room, he is particularly interested in the kitchen and bathroom right now. I really not sure when exactly is the right time to potty train and how you know. So I have been helping him understand that the “potty” is safe by putting him up on the toilet with the lid down and letting him get use to sitting there. The other day Cason overheard me ask our dog if she had to go to the bathroom, I let her outside and the next thing I know Cason is gone. I called his name a couple of times with no reply, so I started to search around the house. My search ended in our bathroom with Cason sitting on top of the toilet with a huge smile on his face. I couldn’t help but laugh! So cute but also scary. How do you know when to potty train? I don’t want to start too earlier!
Why I made this dish: I tend to have a sweet tooth in the evenings and was trying to think of a dessert that was less fating to eat. I had some of the Homemade Almond Vanilla Granola left over from the other day and just came up with this parfait idea.
Why you need to try this dish: All the components work perfectly together, the creamy taste from the vanilla yogurt with the sweet cinnamon flavored apples, topped by the crunchy almond granola. Its the perfect bit every time. If you like apple crisp you will totally love this dish AND its better for you then the regular apple crisp.
