Summer’s here! I can’t believe it. This year is flying by.

There’s a joke here in the Pacific Northwest that summer doesn’t start until after the Fourth of July. Usually that’s true, weather wise, but this year we’ve had some surprisingly sunny days in May and June.

I’ll take it.

Today I’m sharing one of my favorite parts of summer and the Fourth of July: Food in red, white, and blue. I mean, it’s important to eat patriotically, am I right?

Strawberries, blueberries, granola, and yogurt (vegan if you prefer), all layered up.

It’s our civic duty.

Here, we’ve got a super simple red, white, and blue situation. It hardly warrants a recipe, but sometimes the simplest ideas resonate the most, so here we are.

For these granola parfaits, we’ve got strawberries, blueberries, vanilla yogurt (vegan if you prefer), and granola.

And then a few star-shaped strawberries for topping, because America!

I love that this parfait makes for a super easy, fruit-packed, satisfying breakfast. I’m actually thinking I’m going to want to do this patriotic thing all year long.
