I didn't know people had so much time in the morning... I barely have time to get a piece of bread... let along make all this stuff ...

[@varunnerurkar9418]

rawrawrbaby j. It's meant to be a make ahead recipe. So you can do it on say, a sunday afternoon, and make about four of these for the next four mornings (don't make too many more because yoghurt could go bad after about 5 to 6 days depending on the kind of refrigeration you have)

[@harkendoich2]

Varun Nerurkar At least we're able to read the title lol.

[@TheLadyDi5376]

Varun Nerurkar Yogurt does not go bad that quickly.

[@sal-fw6xj]

harkendoich2 not my point. My point is, if you had the time to make that all the night before I'm sure you are able to get up 10 mins earlier to cook a egg or eat an apple .instead of taking 30mins of your time making this. Which one seem easier and more affection

[@sarah18497]

Going to give this a try

[@Girltalk978]

Thanks claire. Keep in mind that your body can't breakdown flaxseed whole. Try the grounded flaxseeds instead. Thanks a lot

[@chaitalisingh3179]

I tried them today and they were really tasty And now I've made granola for many of my lunched ahead

[@gustavoeducacion]

Great recipe! That beautiful girl offered a lot of options for everyone's taste. The tips are excellent! Thanks!

[@NewCarisa]

This is wonderful! I love vegetarian breakfast options. Thanks!

[@zeenath5830]

gona make it soon. thankyou. looks so yummyyyy am sure will taste too. Am so so blessed NOT to be working for anyone and just living on NEED basis (meaning shelter to live, food for tummy and only surrounded by loving people. Hence all the time in the world to make all these home made yummy stuff.

[@antigam]

Can you post the nutritional information for the Food for Thought and Recipe Rehab meals please? How do we know what you're showing us is healthy? Aren't there way more healthier versions for this meal? Just a suggestion.

[@SuperMojodude]

My Brain (giggity): "And the fruit goes in the fridge to macerate." Wait wut?

[@773soccer]

Glad I wasn't the only one!

[@12InchesUnBuffed]

macerate means: soften or become softened by soaking in a liquid. no speak engrish?

[@excuseme5086]

@@12InchesUnBuffed Lol, not all English speakers know the meaning of macerate. You literally just googled that. You no stuck knowledge?

[@nathanmpishi2473]

did you ever ask if someone wanted a parfait and they said no I don't like no parfait. Parfaits are delicious.

[@felicitasdieterle4563]

yummy! Thank you tor this Recipe. I I am a vegan and I use the Coconut Collaborative full fat Coconut Yoghurt-so delish ! The vegan "Greek Yoghurt! !" It is available as plain Coconut Yoghurt or Coconut-Vanilla.

[@justsmile3391]

Do you have to add the coconut I'm allergic

[@bselmanaj]

Can you store the granola in the fridge and use it for the next day? How long is it usually good for?

[@chni.ellirt]

Bojkena Selmanaj hiii omg

[@blkdiamondchoi]

Great job

[@nataliahansard6855]

that looks good

[@biancaman0707]

i want the recipes. Can you provide the link for the portion of the ingredients?

[@Cakeandguts]

Wonderful. I loved it. Great job. Keep it up!

[@The357royal]

Thanks Claire. Could use low fat or nonfat cottage cheese too. It is a little cheeper and it is also rich in protein.

[@Foodies_Morocco]

thanks alott it seems veryy delecieusssss

[@Jade_Id]

if you google Claire Thomas Parfait you can find the recipe (measurements) on thekitchykitchen

[@thekingofsauce3556]

you know what everybody likes parfaits have you ever met a person you say it's get some parfaits they said hell no I don't like no parfaits parfaits are delicious

[@armaandhir]

could not find the recipe for this. I wanted to know the quantity for each

[@LK-on6rw]

Yummy!

[@lps7747]

I cant have yogurt it upsets my stomach but if i wanted to eat granola n make it into bars how do you do that? Add more oil?

[@marilynmonroe7353]

Which is the difference between greek yogurt and regular yogurt?

[@rscitta]

Greek yogurt has more protein and is thicker in texture

[@EnteIexia]

Greek yogurt is yogurt that has been strained. Hence why it's thicker. It's usually has a stronger taste as well. I learned to make my own yogurt and to make greek yogurt all you need is a cheese cloth then put in some plain yogurt, let the yogurt strain (liquid drained) in order for it to become greek yogurt.

[@antigonasallahu2830]

I would love to try make this, but there is no measurements of ingredients :(.

[@eqlzr2]

Hey, it's 5:30 in the morning, and I want me some sweet shit to wake my ass up and get out the door! ;-)

[@almitabonita1696]

I have chia seed can I use that

[@COOLMAD5683]

What are the measurements for this recipe?

[@ballerqueen1539]

This tutorial was a little vague on the measurements, everyone's definition of the words "a little" is different

[@sandramosqueda4593]

How do u get this recepie

[@keilalugardo1180]

you can do any thing with the granola can i eat it

[@HelloMyNamelsBanana]

There is nothing wrong with carbohydrates. Carbohydrates are good especially for breakfast. A person that can walk and do daily tasks will burn off more than enough calories just by doing nothing but normal things. Why are some people so "health conscious" without really know the exact facts?

[@BrownBrotha]

Because having too much carbs eventually turns to fat. Eating an excess amount of carbs in your diet is bad because majority of people dont know how much carbs they can have a day without going over. There are so many little things that will pile up to your carb count and if you dont keep track, you will be eating more than your suppose to which in return turns into fat. But this parfait she made is pretty healthy because its perfectly balanced with the right amount of granola. fruit and greek yogurt. One tip would be to go easy with the honey. That has a lot of carbs and sugar.

[@EnteIexia]

Complex carbs are okay and healthy like fruits. But carbs like brown/white sugar and honey, not so much. You need to consume these added sugar in very small moderation. Like less than 1 tsp a day. There's link to sugar and obesity and other health problems like mental health. Why is complex carbs like fruit okay? Because they usually have other nutrients like fiber which helps digest the food well. Look it up.

[@rscitta]

6:06 What kind of nail polish is that? It looks great.

[@itsjustnopinionok]

enough for a brunch. not first thing in the mourning unless it was prepared last night.

[@knivesinmediaog]

There's so many sexual innuendos it ain't even funny. My adolescent brain is laughing hysterically!

[@katjapredan5825]

More breakfasts!!

[@77777tracy]

Usually when I click the words "show more" I can see somewhere, measurements for a recipe ,but there arent any measurements or something that says "get this recipe." Can u tell me the measurements or do I just pour however much I want in the bowl?

[@AdriDoesItAll]

Pour as much as you want I guess

[@77777tracy]

thank you very much .:) Cant wait to try

[@hopethecoolgangster603]

What seed black seed or flax

[@bexshemmings9434]

Mmmmm looks goood

[@jasminelam96]

Can you store this if you don't use up all the granola ...?

[@ThePunjabivirus]

Love the way you talk :D

[@cynthiascott8626]

Granola with eggs and oil?

[@farheen5066]

i have an other idea u can add honey directly then using cup

[@animalbeautygirl7996]

She made all that granola and only used a tiny bit?

[@Crystal-nm2dg]

She most likely puts it in a bag and stores it for another time when she makes yogurt...

[@sarahmarinara2785]

I really want to make this but i don't know the amount of stuff to put in. Can someone help please. asap

[@77777tracy]

Petpeeve9 If u have the measurements to this recipe, can I have them? I couldnt find them either. thank you Petpeeve9.

[@sarahmarinara2785]

I wish I had it. But I don't. Still can't find it maybe just wing it?

[@77777tracy]

thats okay.:). I woke thismorning looking at KZbin again and found diff. Parfaits I am interested in making. Love the fruit parfaits, but want to try the strawberry shortcake one and theres one I never heard of before until today called, chocolate banana parfait,and a boston creme parfait

[@sarahmarinara2785]

sounds delicious

[@77777tracy]

i trying to find one I really loved but cant. If I find it, I will get back to u.:)

[@diealysse]

why would you add sugar & and honey to it, it isn't considered healthy plus it already tastes good and sweet even without honey and sugar

[@12InchesUnBuffed]

you can do yours without honey and sugar. To each her/his own

[@malachinorton7770]

There is another way to make the strawberries juicy; put sugar on then and leave them out for a while

[@janettesanchez3734]

Can we use ANY kind of yogurt?????😕😕😕😕😕

[@Alyssa-wh1kc]

yes i always you flavored

[@AdriDoesItAll]

Yes, dairy-free is even healthier too

[@AngelicMessenger24]

Its a snack not a meal. Its loaded with healthy fats, complex carbs, vitamins, and simple carbs. Its an amazing pre or post snack to have with a protein shake. How is it not healthy?

[@camillalovebeauty]

Okay I have a much healthier recipe. You can buy already made granola with freeze dried fruit, then buy some fruit yogurt, and different types of fruit. Layer them in a container, then sprinkle with almonds. Really delicious and only about 200 calories (depending on the brands you buy)

[@dzigimk]

little sugar lol americans

[@x256h]

only one cup!

[@l337g0g0]

Wheres the written recipe? Thank you...

"I don't have to get my finger in there and get super messy"

[@Adorablebooklover]

I want to go for school can u find a faster way

[@kelseywells2819]

I just buy pre made granola

[@kurtissoteri4764]

A lot of effort is going into something that really isn't as healthy as its made out to be...

[@HuyTruong-je6lp]

so its took about 30-40 minutes to finish this? hell no!

[@tylerprendiz8910]

its funny how you can tell this is on a stage because the window in the back is yellow its face its a light xD

[@evelynserrato7869]

i liked it until she said add eggs & honey. i dont like eat eggs.. & im allergic to honey... so sorry , i mean it looks delicious but i wonder if you can make it without both ingredients??

[@Sk514city]

This is very creative but there is way too many calories in this one tiny breakfast, I really don't know what your definition of healthy is..

[@MeretGiddy]

this is food porn to me, I drooled all over the keyboard

[@ongeek9834]

😍😍😍

[@xMissdiorcherie]

People. Stop being so rude to her. It's not too bad to have sugary and "fatty" breakfast, because it will satisfy you longer and you will eat less over the day. And in the morning your body NEEDS that energy..I lost weight with this method... I always have at least a 500 calorie breakfast and I am pretty slim and lost weight ..

[@hammieworldrox488]

Orange zest is not sweet...

[@nicywicy]

I love that she's SUCH a healthy size. It's so nice to actually see a girl who isn't grossly skinny or grossly overweight.

[@HelloMyNamelsBanana]

And where are these "carbohydrate that you are talking about?

[@lpsawesomeness5693]

it is from the oats stupid

[@sleepypanda8724]

Just because he didn't know doesn't mean he's stupid no one taught him it's not his fault

[@sophiadang4750]

Just because there is a lot of calories doesn't mean it's not healthy.

[@supermariosunshine64]

u really dumb

[@EnteIexia]

It's not healthy because of all the added sugar. Too much honey and brown sugar. The sugar in the fruit is fine but the added sugar is only okay in very small amounts. Like less than 1 tsp per week.

[@nekowolf2336]

@@EnteIexia depends on how organic they are if the honey is like only 10% honey and 90% sugar then thats unhealthy but if its the other way around maybe more organic then that would work better

[@missahillful]

😍

[@milishah6895]

Pls do suggest me fruit salad

[@kennedyspear2560]

she said this is a quick breakfast but the granola alone took 30 minutes

[@JasperGleam]

Adding brown sugar negates any positive effect..

[@toeny]

If i had a dime everytime she said "bind" i'd probably still me

3:49 lol

[@shammaalromaithi7781]

my parfait didn't turned out the same the Greek yogurt ended up getting squashed in my glass with fruit and the granola

[@sykomonaki181]

Add some ice cream to the yoghurt, and freeze it.

[@mayaayam9361]

Is this recipe healthy? It has a lot of carbohydrates.

[@BigMongo]

3:49

[@yasmeennazish5789]

Egg white is important

[@demonpride1975]

i got a better idea. a bowl of cheerios, cut up bananas and milk. done. a whole lot less sugar, even more so if you get cheerios with no sugar added. don't want something too sweet. adds honey adds brown sugar, tops it off with honey. not to mention all that fruit has natural sugars in it. oh i also liked the silent nod to veganism, and yes i said veganism. vegetarians are hypocrite. you don't want to eat meat, but have no problem eating egg that comes from said animal.

[@braydenturiello2915]

I cant believe how many people can actually say “wow how do you have that much time in the morning” or “this isn’t a fast and easy breakfast”. The video literally says MAKE-AHEAD its called prepping it the day before so you can grab and go. No wonder you people eat out so much you don’t how to prep meals.
