Did you know it is National Trail Mix day on the 31st of August?
To honour this auspicious occasion I have created my own breakfast parfait that incorporates a pepita and hazelnut trail mix (my own special combination), pear, Greek yoghurt and rolled oats.
I have offered this to a few of my house guests and got a resounding thumbs up! I will be regularly including this on our breakfast menu.
This recipe serves 4.

This looks great, Carol! Straightforward, tasty, and nutritious, too. Can’t ask for more!
