Finding myself with a glut of bargain blueberries at the weekend I decided to make myself a healthy breakfast and so Blueberry Breakfast Parfait with Greek Yogurt & Lemon Curd came to be. My first version used some lemon curd yogurt I had in the fridge. However with fat free Greek yogurt and my Granny’s Quick Lemon Curd also in the fridge I realised I could make my own lemon curd yogurt which was far tastier as the curd is made with lemon zest that gives it a real zing!
I can’t tell you how good this Blueberry Breakfast Parfait with Greek Yogurt & Lemon Curd is, the fresh taste of the blueberries compliments the tangy lemon curd yogurt which is off set with the sweetness of the granola. I could easily have eaten another one it was so good and my daughter enjoyed hers too even though she’s not that fussed with blueberries. I’m not really a morning person so you’ll rarely find me doing much more than popping some cereal in a bowl with perhaps a sliced banana but this breakfast parfait is so quick and easy to put together I’ll be making this on a regular basis now!

Fab Margaret, wish I had some more blueberries:-)
That looks like a delicious healthy breakfast; I adore lemon curd, especially with yoghurt. I haven’t tried adding granola to the mix before, it sounds delicious!
Thanks Hannah, all the flavours and textures worked so well:-)
What a beautiful breakfast idea. So summery
Thanks Jo, wish I had some more blueberries for tomorrow’s breakfast!

Thanks Amy, so good:-)
I do love a nice Parfait and this one looks delicious
Thanks Richard, it is totally delicious:-)
You’ve certainly hit on a fresh and bright combination for summer breakfast – and dessert too. Homemade lemon curd is so so gorgeous and, as you show, not just for toast. Lush!
Thanks Kellie, yes Lemon Curd is so versatile and great in this breakfast;-)
Mmmm now this is my kind of breakfast! You’ve reminded me, it’s been ages since I’ve made lemon curd! Need to remedy that!
Thanks Elizabeth, it’s my new favourite breakfast:-)
I think lemon & blueberry is one of the best combinations you could have but I admit I hadn’t thought of trying it for breakfast but I love this idea and a home made lemon curd can’t be beaten either!
Thanks Laura, don’t think I’ve ever combined these 2 flavours before so it was high time:-)
Oh that sounds amazing – adding your lemon curd to the yogurt is inspired!
Thanks Grace, it worked so well:-)
