This strawberry parfait recipe was recently updated to use fresh strawberries instead of cooked ones to help make the recipe easier. The yogurt also now includes cream cheese and serves 4 instead of 3. See the original recipe below:

1 pound frozen strawberries

1 ½ cup Greek yogurt

3 tablespoons honey

½ cup granola
Instructions

In a medium bowl, use a fork or potato masher to mash the strawberries until they break down and release their liquid. Transfer the mashed strawberries to a strainer and strain the excess liquid. Reserve the liquid for smoothies or another use.
Place the Greek yogurt and honey in another small bowl and whisk together until well combined.
To assemble the parfait, divide the yogurt into 3-4 bowls. Top with the strawberry sauce and sprinkle the granola on top. Enjoy immediately.
