Coconut Yogurt Parfaits

By Chef Amanda DeLaura

The sun rises through the window and the smell of freshly cracked cardamom reminds me of long hours drinking chai in Goa, India. If only all mornings could be that peaceful. I bring my blueberries to a boil, let them cool and then plate myself a heaping breakfast parfait. I make a second parfait for tomorrow morning’s breakfast and place it in the fridge. Bon appétit!
