TROPICAL BREAKFAST PARFAIT

Steps:

• Put 2 tablespoons of yogurt in the bottom of each of four juice glasses. Top with 4 orange slices. Sprinkle the oranges with a 1 1/2 tablespoons of cereal, followed by 2 more tablespoons of yogurt. Top with diced pineapple then with another 1 1/2 tablespoons cereal.

BREAKFAST PARFAITS WITH FIG COMPOTE

Steps:

• Mix together the blackberries, blueberries and strawberries in a bowl. Put 2 tablespoons Fig Compote in the bottom of six parfait glass. Top with 1/4 cup yogurt, followed by 1/4 cup of the mixed berries. Add another layer of yogurt, and then top with 1 tablespoon Fig Compote and 2 tablespoons Fruit-and-Nut Trail Mix. Serve immediately.
• Combine the figs, sugar, vinegar, orange zest and juice, cinnamon and 3/4 teaspoon salt in a medium pot over medium-high heat; bring to a boil. Begin to break down the figs with a potato masher or the edge of a wooden spoon. Continue to boil until the compote has thickened enough to resemble a chutney and a wooden spoon drawn through the mixture leaves a track behind it, 5 to 6 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool completely, about 15 minutes.
• Stir in the honey and season with salt. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Combine the walnuts, cashews, coconut flakes and pepitas in a large bowl; toss with the coconut oil and some salt. Spread the mixture evenly onto a baking sheet. Bake until toasted and fragrant, 10 minutes. Let cool completely, at least 20 minutes.
• Mix in the banana chips, goji berries and dried pineapple. Stir in the carob chips if you want a bit of "chocolate" with your trail mix! Serve immediately or store in an airtight container at room temperature.
