Being a student with a busy life, it’s hard to find time to make breakfast every morning. We all would rather stay in bed for those extra 10 minutes then get up and cook a meal. For this issue, Cooking Column brings you fast and easy breakfast ideas that you can prepare in under 10 minutes and eat on your way to school.
Our first recipe is a classic and simple Double Berry breakfast parfait. If there is no time to prepare something the night before a school day, then these parfaits are the perfect last minute option. They’re super easy to make and are very mess free.
Double Berry Breakfast Parfait
Here’s what you’ll need:
- ¾ cup of Greek yogurt
- ¼ cup of a combination of strawberries and blueberries
- Granola to your liking
- Honey
Steps:
- Put a layer of yogurt in a jar or plastic container.
- Layer yogurt and fruit one to two times.
- Put a drizzle of honey and granola for taste.
- Repeat steps until your container is filled.

The second recipe we have is for a unique Fro-Yo Popsicle. You can make these popsicles a few days in advance, freeze them and then just grab them in the morning on your way out of the house for the rest of the week.
