Strawberry & Grapefruit Parfait 6

Sometimes great ideas hit you like a ton of bricks.  This last weekend I was at the farmers market thinking of what to make.  I knew I had a bunch of ripe strawberries at home so I wanted to pair them with another fruit to showcase their sweet flavor.  I saw some beautiful grapefruits and my mind almost exploded.  I have never been a huge grapefruit fan because they are a bit to bitter for me.  Just like people pour sugar on grapefruit, mixing them with strawberries brought out their sweeter side and the two together was a match made in fruit heaven.  I don’t often see the two together but it will be a new staple for me.  I made this parfait with greek yogurt and some graham cracker crumbs so it could be either a sweet breakfast or a healthy dessert!!

First grab your beautiful fruits.
